Blackfire (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Questionably notable band with some coverage as shown in the article and my searches here, here, here, here and here (this last one has one link that says they've gotten attention from Arizona to New York and to France) so I wanted comments for a full consensus.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Hey, would you comment for the sake of a consensus? I'm sure you'll come along eventually but consider this an early reminder.  SwisterTwister   talk  06:31, 21 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - Thanks,, although I have to disagree with you on this one. I think there's enough there to keep the article. There's some nice in-depth coverage here, here, here, here (this source was copied in several other books as well), and this. Even the mentions that your second link leads to are nice mentions, and while in passing, indicate the importance of the band, as did this one. I think their minor niche in the music industry, as well as their pre-internet career limits their online exposure.  Onel 5969  TT me 12:37, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. If as 's citations were not enough, I include hatted below 10+ longer or shorter mentions. They've even been referred to in fictional literature. Meets WP:BAND. -- Sam Sailor Talk! 20:55, 22 October 2015 (UTC)



They've even made it into fictional literature:
