Non-notable band, fails Notability -- Casmith_789 (talk) 13:57, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Neutral. The only place where I could find a review of the band's material is on Sputnik Music, but that website has a mix of professional and non-professional reviews. If it can be determined the reviews of the band there are indeed professional, I'd say keep; if not, delete. THE AMERICAN METROSEXUAL 16:47, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: Is there an admin around that can compare how the old page was (before it was speedy deleted) to how it is now? Thanks :) -- Casmith_789 (talk) 17:42, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, the text is entirely different; the deleted version was promotional in tone, and even referred to the band by saying "we". Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:35, 30 September 2009 (UTC)


 * There are multiple articles on other-language Wikipedias; the Swedish article at least has a third-party source, this article from TV4. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:38, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. It could be that coverage mainly consists of Swedish-language sources, but I have no problems in finding reviews and articles about them in regular Swedish press, such as here in Expressen, here in Helsingborgs Dagblad and here in Dala-Demokraten.

 * Okay, if there are this many third-party sources it is notable, and as I can see I was the only person advocating delete? I would like to withdraw my nomination, thanks :) -- Casmith_789 (talk) 10:07, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep: see Tom above - Ret.Prof (talk) 22:16, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
