This release isn't notable enough for its own article. No reliable sources provided. Deserted Cities 19:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Alright, here's a source-[http://www.bandsonly.com/coldplay/discography/singles/ode-to-deodorant--brothers--sisters/ ]

And another-

And another-

Is that enough along with the ones that are already on the article?-- Coldplay  Expert  19:54, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Oh sorry but I forgot, Keep-- Coldplay  Expert  19:55, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, the first is just a link to download it. The second is an interview which barely touches on it.  The third is a from a "Q and A" website.  None of them qualify as reliable sources to prove notability.  Deserted Cities 20:02, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * And to quote WP:MUSIC, "In general, if the musician or ensemble that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia. Demos, mixtapes, bootlegs, promo-only, and unreleased albums are in general not notable; however, they may be notable if they have significant independent coverage in reliable sources". This article in question is a demo.  Deserted Cities 20:08, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

What do you mean the interview barely touches it? The entire section of the interview with will champion is about it.-- Coldplay  Expert  20:32, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Semantics. It doesn't matter either way.  Deserted Cities 21:08, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

(Sighs) Ok Ill take the article back... :(-- Coldplay  Expert  21:18, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge relevent info to Coldplay. No, this isn't notable in its own right, but it's certainly interesting as part of the formation of the band. Quantpole (talk) 21:47, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge That seems like a good idea, I guess that it doesnt deserve it's own article but there is some interesting things on here. It was the first thing created by the band.-- Coldplay  Expert  21:55, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge into the "Formation and first years" section of the Coldplay article, or into "Brothers & Sisters" (song). It'll fit in nicely there. talking  birds  16:17, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Comment Just a quick question, why does Mince Spies have an article and this one will probably be deleted? (This is not an OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument)-- Coldplay   Expert  19:50, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I'd assume because the article in question is a demo tape, and never released on a major label. But Mince Spices is released on Parlophone.  Deserted Cities 01:13, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Alright well what can be salvaged out of my work? (Oh and before you delete this page please give me a head up so that way I can copy its contents into a sandbox article.)-- Coldplay   Expert  10:13, 14 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - I recommend that no additional Coldplay articles by Coldplay Expert and Guitarherochristopher be allowed to be created. None of these topics even remotely pass WP:NOTABLE. Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 20:52, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Comment WHAT....are you kidding me? I understand your position but Please!! reconsider you idea. I have realized that A lot of my article that I have created in the past have been....well not good but please assume good faith. I am sorry for my past edits and I will ask others if any article that is Coldplay related that I make in the future is a good idea. In fact I already have see my conversation with JD554 on my talk page. (And his) Oh and one more thing. There have been some good articles of mine in the past like Latin America Tour. I will even take everything off of this page and ask an admin to delete it.-- Coldplay   Expert  22:39, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
