This article fails WP:BAND and WP:RS. Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 03:21, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

This band does meet the requirements of WP:BAND for a relevant band on Wikipedia (criteria number 1) since they have had an interview on national radio (CBC Radio One) which was in excess of 10 minutes. (on All In A Day, Nov 21, 2007 - see link in article to listen to interview.) and a second interview on CBC in 2006 that was about 6 minutes in length (again see links in article). They have also toured internationally and have played at the Ottawa International Blues Festival, a fairly prestigious honour for any up and coming band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by V1i2n3c4e5 (talk • contribs) 05:57, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

And it now has sources deemed reliable from WP:RS


 * I politely disagree. One could argue that it doesn't meet WP:BAND, which requires that the band "has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works" (bold and italics are mine). Having a pair of brief chats on the same radio network does not equal non-trivial coverage from multiple media outlets. Ecoleetage (talk) 13:39, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

They have also had a fairly large amount of airtime (in excess of 30 minutes I believe) on CKCU, an Ottawa radio station. And getting 2 chats on CBC isn't something small, CBC is the largest radio network in Canada and up there with the largest in the world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by V1i2n3c4e5 (talk • contribs) 14:12, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * CKCU is a college radio station (as identified in the article). And getting on CBC is not difficult -- I know people in the marketing world who routinely get their clients on CBC without any difficulty. Ecoleetage (talk) 14:45, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

And they are big enough/good enough to play at the Ottawa Bluesfest in 2007, along with bands/acts such as Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Kanye West, White Stripes, Manu Chao, Steve Miller, etc, etc. Already that should be enough merit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by V1i2n3c4e5 (talk • contribs) 17:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Can we keep the notability/deletion discussions within the AfD, as long as that may be in progress? Dl2000 (talk) 04:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
