2003 Demo

Content-free article on an unpublished demo single by a non-notable band Irides centi  10:52, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete self-published albums in general (there may be exceptions, but nothing indicates that this is one of them), just like self-published books. Punkmorten 11:13, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - The band does meet the notability requirements. They have six albums to their credit at the present time according to the article about them. Additionally, notability in itself is not a criterion for deletion. That being said, my concern is that there are not any sources listed. As a result none of the tracks or information can be verified. If the author of the page can find some credible sources, then I think the page should stay. -- Cyrus Andiron   t/c 15:17, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * As the nominator I haven't nominated the band (although on closer inspection three of those six albums appear to be self-published), but just this album which appears to be an unreleased demo with nothing in the text to indicate any kind of significance. I recognise that some unreleased albums, eg the Beach Boys' Smile or Big Star's Sister Lovers, are genuinely notable but there's nothing to indicate it here. Irides centi  15:44, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * My comment about the notability of the band was directed at the post above mine. I understand that you did not nominate the band. I was simply pointing out that they did have some degree of notability. As I said before, because this is a demo, the author of the page is going to need to provide sources for the content of the article. Otherwise, there is no way to prove that the album even exists. If the author is unable or unwilling to provide sources then the article should be deleted as per the nomination. I was not arguing for the album, I was merely stating that it needed sources in accordance with Wikipedia policy. -- Cyrus Andiron   t/c 17:32, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
