Dealer (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article is about two bands, one from Linz, Austria and one from Cirencester, UK. Both bands appears to fail WP:GNG and likely WP:BAND. Custom searches, including ones in GNews archives and Google Books have not yielded anything for the Linz, Austria band, and searches for the Cirencester, UK band have only turned up this passing mention.

 * Delete - For the Cirencester band, I found this article which mentions they were scheduled to perform with Ozzy Osbourne last year. Unfortunately, I'm not fluent with German but I did find this video for the Austrian Dealer which mentions the 1999 establishment but this is not sufficient or reliable. I should that this article's first link is to the British band and the second is to the Austrian band. If you look through the history to this edit, an IP added a link to a Portland-based band named Dealer but the link is dead so that band was probably also non-notable. Considering the article exclaims "CURRENTLY ACTIVE", this article's purpose is obviously to gain attention for both bands. SwisterTwister   talk  20:38, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - because it is perhaps only promotional. Also relevant is WP:109PAPERS. Mr T  (Talk?)  [ (New thread?) ] 19:41, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
