BQ Girls

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Reads like a promo. iTunes indicates an indie label and no apparent charting for their one single, so fails WP:MUSIC. All sources used were written prior to any release, and the tours referenced haven't happened yet (WP:CRYSTAL). Notability also seems to be predicated on the members' prior Miss Universe participation (and perhaps Donald Trump as well), and thus meets WP:NOTINHERITED.

 * Delete - two of the singers individually are notable (hence why they have articles already), but the other two aren't, and as of yet, the group containing all 4 isn't either. A mention of the group in both Wendy Fitzwilliam and Chelsea Cooley is all that is required of yet. Lukeno94 (talk) 10:02, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Having singles on iTunes does not make someone notable. The fourth link used as a reference just goes to a generic page on Trinidad Express, who to me seem like a tabloid paper and are therefore not reliable - so that strikes out reference 1 as well. Reference 2 is a very, very low quality and short reference on a website that is very blatantly a tabloid style. So that's no valid references then. I found another article on Jamaica Observer, but once more that does nothing other than give a very passing mention to their music, whilst being very much a tabloid style. The group blatantly fails WP:MUSIC at present, and I'm also fairly sure they fail WP:GNG - two members are notable on their own; but that does not make the group notable yet as a whole. The fact that searching for "BQ Girls" pulls up links to an article about a B&Q worker and a Venezuela beauty school speaks volumes on the first page, I feel.

 * Still passes WP:GNG and WP:MUSIC for now per coverage recieved for Itunes releases. We can twist the arguments around a million times I guess but I stand firm in my believes on this articles notability. Just because sources comes from a Trinidian newspaper doesnt make it less notable then lets say an American or English newspaper source.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:53, 30 November 2012 (UTC)


 * delete meets none of the criteria of WP:BAND. dubious notability of iTunes single. Fails WP:GNG as well. LibStar (talk) 03:16, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
