Amphora (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Deprodded with the rationale: "I think the article is relevant due to numerous fans who inquire about the group and still enjoy the music. The article should have more reference's with time." I'm unable to find coverage in reliable sources for the subject, which does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:BAND.  Gongshow  Talk 18:02, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. Vanispamcruftisement. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:28, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Painkiller4. I don't think this article should be deleted since new sources have been added.Painkiller4 (talk) 15:59, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. The references do nothing beyond demonstrating the probable existence of the band. They don't sustain a case for notability. QU TalkQu 21:07, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. juggs4. This article is important if you were a fan of this band or own the cd. It also has more than one source.juggs4 (talk) 1:55, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. TheRealDeal6. I liked the article, I say keep it.TheRealDeal6 (talk) 12:54, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

 * I love myself therefore I want an article on me, will you create it for me?  Yash  t  101   11:51, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't find anything that would suggest that WP:MUSIC is met. --sparkl!sm hey! 08:30, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Jcr75. I found the article more informative than I did detrimental. Jcr75 (talk) 1:55, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

 * "Enjoyment" is not a criterion for keeping an article. Also this is not a vote and therefore creating lots of single-purpose accounts to "vote" will make no difference to the outcome. QU TalkQu 12:06, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Leaving links to making a page to ones self and tagging other user accounts that vote keep seems to show bias in persuading a consensus. A simple delete or keep will do, vs trying to sabotage an afd (juggs4) 11:13, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It is normal practice to tag spa accounts as such as it assists the closing administrator. I did not nominate this article for deletion - I am simply trying to stop people changing other people's !votes, removing !votes they don't agree with and removing maintenance templates all of which has been going on. An AfD is not a vote so it doesn't matter how many people come along and express an opinion unless that opinion is founded in Wikipedia policy. 500 people could say they enjoyed the article and it wouldn't help - you need to demonstrate the article meets the notability policy. Therefore a count of keeps / deletes is not going to somehow make a difference and therefore it is pointless creating new accounts to "vote".QU TalkQu 16:41, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NBAND. Unlike some articles on bands/musicians which arrive here occasionally, I found no secondary sources in reliable sources in this case. -- Trevj (talk) 13:18, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
