7 Seconds of Love
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This has been to AfD twice in 2008 (one delete, one keep), then after its re-creation it has sat in CAT:NN for over 11 years. In favour of its notability: it has a member (Joel Veitch) who appears to be notable as an individual. The article and the last AfD claimed an article in NME (but both links given are deadlinks/don't mention them). They did sue Coca Cola and this got international coverage but I'd say of a 1E type. The WP:ATD is merge/redirect to Joel Veitch. Boleyn (talk) 12:19, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak Keep as they do have reliable sources coverage such as this staff written biography at AllMusic here as well as the NME review which I will try to fix tomorrow and look for more sources, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:03, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Changed to weak keep as couldn't fix NME link and only found this, and this, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 18:13, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 12:08, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
 * That seems a very doubtful keep-vote based on one weak web source.


 * Delete A search reveals extremely few hits of any kind, and nothing that could be used to establish notability. Chiswick Chap (talk) 12:33, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect - not the easiest band name to search for, as I kept returning articles on both 7 Seconds and ska, but couldn't really find anything beyond AllMusic (my personal AllMusic preference is that at least one album--and this band only has one?--is reviewed as well) and stories about Coke. Would reconsider if NME or newspaper coverage about their music could be found. Caro7200 (talk) 13:16, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
