A Genuine Freakshow

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

No evidence of notability as demonstrated by significant coverage in third party sources. Since The Word's website does not list them as part of the featured content of the January 2010 issue, one must assume that the coverage there was not significant.

 * Delete: fails WP:BAND, unless some more evidence of independent coverage can be added.-- SabreBD  (talk)  12:39, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. The Word contains hundreds of articles and reviews - they won't all be listed on the website, and that doesn't make all but those listed insignificant. This band have toured overseas and on the UK festival circuit (Bestival, Summer Sundae, 2000 Trees), and there is enough coverage out there to satisfy notability concerns. The List, This Is Fake DIY, Creative Boom, Drowned in Sound, The Mag, The Mag, Clash.--Michig (talk) 07:09, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Weak Keep - The article is well written and they seem to have played at multiple major festivals for several years. --Samtheboy (t/c) 16:52, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
