Counterparts (band)

 * — (View AfD)

College a cappella article which does not meet the notability requirements of WP:MUSIC or the verifiability requirements of WP:RS/WP:NOR. Only claims to notability are getting a track on a BOCA album and having a notable alum. Multiple, non-trivial secondary-sources are required to establish the notability of a group. Claims from their own website are insufficient to ever produce a good article. savidan(talk) (e@) 01:37, 18 December 2006 (UTC) *Strong keep A cappella groups have some notability. This group has had serveral albums and many Google hits. A cappella groups are not radio towers. They are established musical organizations.  S h a r k f a c e  2 1 7  06:14, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

 * This keep vote has been copy and pasted and has nothing to do with this group. Google hits have nothing to do with it; it doesn't have any WP:RS. savidan(talk) (e@) 06:16, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Weak assertion of notability, fails WP:MUSIC, lack of reliable sources. —ShadowHalo 08:47, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep Asserts notability, received recognition by nation organization of singing groups, has notable alumnus. Needs more independent sources. Does not appear to be a BAND but rather a singing group, so the article needs to be renamed.Edison 18:11, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * BOCA is not an award. They take every entry they recieve (unless its really bad) and you have to pay them $200 in the form of pre-buys. If you had to pay money when you won the National Merit Scholarship, you wouldn't put it on your resume. savidan(talk) (e@) 23:17, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Trust me: National Merit Scholar" does not help your resume, whether you paid money or not. Edison 05:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
