Ant Records

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Does not meet notability guidelines of either WP:CORP or WP:MUSIC.  PK T (alk)  22:38, 31 January 2009 (UTC) WP:MUSIC doesn't say much about labels, but it does say, "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." Ant Records does not meet this.  PK T (alk)  22:41, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge into Music of Nova Scotia - I have been searching for sources. The Google footprint of Ant records is unimpressive. The only article I could find is in the local press at http://www.ffwdweekly.com/Issues/2005/0707/mus4.htm. It claims that Ant Records was small but had impact: In Truro, there was the tiny but mighty Ant Records empire. The label released early recordings by underground hip hop hero Sixtoo and was home to the freakishly introverted but influential group The Motes (guitarist J. LaPointe was in the original North of America lineup). If anything, the article seems to imply that the label can be mentioned in a sentence under Music of Nova Scotia, perhaps with this reference. gidonb (talk) 06:12, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
