Aether Shanties (Abney Park album)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Album which fails WP:GNG. Note that there are several more articles by this band which consist only of track listings and personnel listings. Previously redirected to band's article. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 23:10, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

 * According to WP:NALBUMS: "All articles on albums, singles or songs must meet the basic criteria at the notability guidelines, with significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. In general, if the musician or ensemble that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia." According to that criteria, since the band is considered notable - as it is considered the "premiere" steampunk band - and the album has significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject (as shown by the various reviews linked in the references) the album is notable. keep --Jonnybgoode44 (talk) 23:57, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Abney Park is a notable band and Aether Shanties, their album, is notable in the steampunk subculture as can be found from a few minutes research or from the references placed at the bottom of the albums article. keep IzzyReal hunts idiots (talk) 05:34, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep. Since WP:NALBUMS dictates that the album's generally have notability extending to a band if hte band is notable, since Abney Park is notable, I'm going to roll with this. -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 07:07, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
