 * Merge/Redirect - information on demo that is verifiable might be of historical interest. Merge/redirect to Barenaked Ladies or Gordon (album). D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 01:11, 25 April 2010 (UTC) Addendum - or Delete if that info is not verifiable.  D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 23:30, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * The problem is that none of it is verifiable. The only sources are a) an unverifiable fan discography (which has contributions by band members, but no citation on this album specifically), a torrent of the tape which is one person's claim of the album content, and two or three isolated stories of "the band gave me a copy of the tape, and here's my story". Nothing that meets wikistandards IMO. eg: the leaked tape contains "Blame It On Me" while someone else who claims to have received a copy of the tape from the band claims that their copy did not have that song. There is no other source to verify either way. TheHYPO (talk) 16:19, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I concur on your assessment of the sources (or lack thereof). See the addendum to my vote above. D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 23:30, 25 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete, demos are generally not notable. -- Nuujinn (talk) 16:10, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Agree that the references are vague and unreliable. Unverified info can't be merged. Xtzou ( Talk ) 18:04, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
