Speedy deletion nomination of The incredible sandwich
A tag has been placed on The incredible sandwich requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

 * I did see your comment in your initial edit summary. However, just because X is similar to notable Y doesn't make X notable.  That would be like saying that since I am similar to Gauss in my interests and Gauss is notable, I must therefore be notable.  Please see also the general notability guideline.  Thanks, RJaguar3 &#124;  u  &#124;  t  19:59, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Explanation for article creation
The Incredible Sandwich is notable because they have won multiple awards, appeared at a very popular music festival, and they have been recognized in polls by distinguished sources. They have been favorably compared to bands such as Phish and Widespread Panic in such a way that would attract the mass amount of fans from such popular bands. I have listed multiple outside sources which I believe shows that they are growing and are becoming an even more notable band. In the same way that Phish and Widespread Panic kind of adopted the fans of The Grateful Dead after their touring ended, I think The Incredible Sandwich could absorb the Phish and Panic fans soon since both bands' members are getting older. They are now working with the renowned record producer John Keane, who has worked with bands such as REM, Widespread Panic, and Uncle Tupelo, and this is another very strong indicator of the band's growth and notability. If Keane sees promise in this group, they are most likely on the right track. The appearance at the Wakarusa Music Festival is also impressive since the festival draws around 50,000 people from across the country and features some of the best live acts in the world. They also beat out Perpetual Groove for the award of Best Jam Band at the Flagpole Music Awards, a band that has their own Wikipedia article that has much less outside sources for their page.
