Corrupted (band)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Series of articles on non-notable band & its albums. Sources are either blogs or the bands/distributors websites, so no 3rd party WP:RS to establish notability. Including for same reason:

 * Keep the band - HG Fact seems to be, despite our not having an article on them, the sort of "important indie label" that WP:MUSIC asks for, though if someone with better Japanese than me can puzzle through their backlist and find they don't have enough history, I'd change that. But it looks that they are it is to me, and with the band having more than two albums with that label, meets WP:MUSIC C5, and as such is notable. For the albums, merge per WP:MUSIC into the band's article until and unless reliable coverage can be found. —Quasirandom (talk) 14:41, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep as per above; also, I am 100% sure that third-party coverage can be found for their albums (at least one already has an Allmusic review on it, does that not count?). = ∫tc 5th Eye 21:01, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Cirt (talk) 00:17, 24 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Weak keep per Quasirandom, but fix the album titles with proper accent marks. The fact that Allmusic bothered to review them seems to be a good sign too. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 01:09, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Note the official album titles do not contain accent marks, even though in proper Spanish they should. see their discography page and album covers—no accent marks. = ∫tc 5th Eye 01:30, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. The band is underground and it's difficult to find sources because of their media policy, but I've read articles on their work in the The Wire and in other places. I've also heard them namechecked by Peter Rehberg and Neurosis. Aryder779 (talk) 14:31, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
