Fails WP:NBAND. A WP:BEFORE search mostly returns results about things unrelated to the band. FAdesdae378 (talk · contribs) 21:46, 24 August 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  Sandstein   08:23, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep (in German) appears to be in-depth coverage,  has some that may or may not be considered in depth, and  has a bit (but it's mainly about one of their albums). There is another short piece at . The French and Catalan articles also look to have detailed information about the band, both citing the offline source "Jean-Pierre Thiollet, « La Potinière : "Bratsch" à quatre et en musique », Le Quotidien de Paris,‎ 2 juillet 1981." (that I don't have access to) among others. Based on everything I'm seeing, I strongly suspect that most of the sources about this band whose peak popularity was pre-internet and who seem to have principally toured in continental Europe are unsurprisingly offline and not in English.

 * Keep it should be kept based on what  Thryduulf posted. In addition, if they toured more than 2 countires,  then it meets WP:MUSICBIO.Zeddedm (talk) 08:03, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't know whether they toured all these countries, but the French and Catalan articles state they have performed in, at least, France (~650 concerts), Germany (~240), Switzerland (~80), Canada (~50), Ukraine, Turkey, Spain, Greece and Armenia. Thryduulf (talk) 18:44, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep as well as the non-english sources identified above they also have a staff written bio at AllMusic here and four staff written album reviews. Passes WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 22:42, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
