A State of Trance (label)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Vanity label associated with Armin van Buuren, not indication of notability, sources are WP:PRIMARY. Redirect to parent company. Karst (talk) 23:10, 21 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep - notable label that can use expansion. There are significant coverage of reliable sources on Google. - The   Magnificentist  06:23, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Such as? When I do a search, all that I am getting is social media and links to armada.com. Merging it with the radio show would be another option. Karst (talk) 11:21, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Searching for the following query in the news section, "A State of Trance" label -site:trance.news leads to several reliable sources such as Deep House Amsterdam, Broadway World, The Nocturnal Times, SPIN, Your EDM and more. - The   Magnificentist  06:47, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

*Keep - That's right. It's a notable label that can use expansion. There are significant coverage of reliable sources on Google. 141.138.146.132 (talk) 10:04, 22 December 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * I'm staying out of this a little bit since I got involved with the creator's unblock request, but I just want to point out that the above users provide no proof of notability. Drmies (talk) 04:01, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:COMPANY. No secondary sources to support notability.  Magnolia677 (talk) 03:26, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 09:05, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge to Armada Music. It's not a vanity label, it's a sub-label of a notable record company, and in the absence of sufficient coverage to support a separate article, a merge to the parent company seems an obvious outcome. --Michig (talk) 08:33, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
