A Tribute to The Black Emperors

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Challenged WP:PROD. According to WP:MUSIC, "Demos, mixtapes, bootlegs and promo-only records are in general not notable." At this point, there's nothing to indicate that this is an exception (although there is a recently added reference to a single source, put into the article as I was searching for sources). I've been looking for verification through reliable sources on google, but haven't found anything. Unless more substantial sourcing can be produced, I believe this should be deleted per the notability guideline. Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:19, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Its a black metal collector's item; highly notable amongst satanist, but of limited interest to all others. Its was Mayhem's peak. Ceoil 20:55, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Question From curiosity: what makes this bootleg highly notable amongst satanists? According to the article, "All the tracks in this bootleg are taken from other records that are not considered rare". Is there something else noteworthy about it? If so, it would be much easier to judge the notability of the album if that were included in the article with verifiable sourcing. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 21:28, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm clutching at straws here. Black metal fans would know the tape, because it one of the few recordings of Dead, but wheather it passes WP:MUSIC, I donnow. Ceoil 21:43, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Keep and Cleanup. Remember, "Failing to satisfy the notability guidelines is not a criterion for... deletion." Prepare to be Mezmerized! :D 23:25, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment It is true, as the guideline says, that "Failing to satisfy the notability guidelines is not a criterion for speedy deletion." This wasn't nominated for speedy deletion. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:02, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
