Clockwork (band)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I have declined an A7 speedy on this on the basis of another editor's plea on the talk page that "I feel that this article does, at least partially, meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for one reason only: the band's music has been featured on the well-known show The Hills," so that it should go to AfD rather than be speedied. In fact the article only claims that a song written by two of them is "soon to be featured" on The Hills: it is not clear that this band will perform it and, with their debut album "TBA", I think they anyway fall well short of the standard required by WP:BAND.

 * Delete This band may be on it's way to notability, but at this time they have not achieved the threshold for inclusion on WP. Angryapathy (talk) 15:03, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete I couldn't find any reliable sources that demonstrate the band's notability. Maybe one day, but for now fails WP:MUSIC. sparkl!sm hey! 16:16, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can find no coverage for this band. Article can certainly be recreated if and when the band becomes notable, but at this time they do not appear to meet WP:BAND.  Gongshow  Talk 19:09, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this band. Joe Chill (talk) 19:44, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Incidentally, I was the editor who requested that the A7 speedy be declined and that the article should go to AfD, stating that "I feel that this article does, at least partially, meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for one reason only: the band's music has been featured on the well-known show The Hills...". However, as this is the band's only claim to fame, the band's article does not fully meet Wikipedia's notability standards. Therefore, it should be deleted.

 * Delete. The speedy is contested, fair enough, but this definitely does not have the coverage warranted to meet WP:BAND criteria.  JBsupreme (talk) 06:37, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
