 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Deleted twice as a7, once as prod, notability issues. The prod was contested so I am putting it here as a standard procedure. No opinion from my side. Tone 11:39, 3 February 2008 (UTC) 
 * Delete per WP:MUSIC, then suggest redirection to Black Black. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  14:25, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as failing WP:MUSIC and because notability is not inherited. Redirection as above could be fine.--h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 15:39, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of notability. Redirection doesn't make sense to me, the subjects are unrelated.  &mdash;  X  S  G  22:54, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - I was unaware of the Alex Greenwald connection, which is pretty clearly a criteria for notability.  &mdash; X  S  G  23:31, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete no notability. -  Milk's   Favorite   Cookie  02:33, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep because the band is notable for containing guitarist Alex Greenwald of the notable band Phantom Planet. According to WP:MUSIC, this is grounds for notability. Also according to WP:MUSIC, the band page should redirect to Greenwald's page, but I believe this is not necessary because Blackblack have enough achievements of their own to at least make them above "side project" status. In the event that the page is deleted, I think redirection to Black Black is really not necessary because they are completely unrelated. I think if the page is deleted it should redirect to Alex Greenwald and a section should start on his page about the band. -Lamarcus (talk) 01:47, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Also, Blackblack had a tour in a sovereign nation (Japan), which is under the notability rules as well. -06:48, 6 February 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lamarcus (talk • contribs)
 * Keep. WP:MUSIC criterion #6 clearly applies. Given there is a reasonable amount of cited material here, I would agree with Lamarcus that a merge with Alex Greenwald would not be a good idea. However, a merge would be more sensible than deletion. WP:MUSIC criterion #4 may also apply, although the article does need more citations. Bondegezou (talk) 17:49, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete unless the author or interested party can find notable references (someone's blog doesn't count as notable) and third-party citations.--Sallicio$\color{Red} \oplus$ 09:25, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep and place tag at the top of the page. If no sources are added within the next few months I suggest re-AFD'ing it. D.M.N. (talk) 14:57, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, JERRY talk contribs 03:57, 12 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep - meets WP:MUSIC. matt91486 (talk) 05:33, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep This doesn't fail WP:MUSIC, it explicitly meet criterion #6. Keep it tagged per D.M.N. --L. Pistachio (talk) 08:38, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep for passing criterion #6 of WP:MUSIC. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 18:51, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
