Diabologum

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Don't see how this is a notable band; was PRODded in 2007 for lack of notability, but someone contested it. I don't speak French, which may be part of the problem, but I can't find anything approaching significant coverage The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 20:21, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment The only possible wp:notability related reference given is an interview which is in a web site. The other references are their own pages, and the web site of their successor band. North8000 (talk)

Diabologum was actualy a kind of "underground" band. Strange music, strange use of the French languague. They sold few records, but they printed their path into French indie rock. For instance, their lone concert in 2011 was said to be a phenomenon. Google "diabologum reformation" and you'll find your coverage. Quite a big event. Sadly, only for Froggies... I translated the article only in English, and I think that's pretty sad to keep the sole French article on WP. Cheers, --JeromRP (talk) 23:37, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Again, I don't speak French, so if you have something that I don't know about by all means add it. I took a listen to their music, and it was pretty neat (even if I don't know the words), so hopefully something is out there.

Keep: They had an article in Les Inrockuptibles:, and also in fr:Chronic'art among others. Regards, Comte0 (talk) 13:21, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep They are indeed all over past issues of Les Inrockuptibles & Chronic'art; see also Libération, Billboard, more. 86.44.31.213 (talk) 07:43, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep There seem to be plenty of references out there, though mainly in French (I'd add some references to the article myself if my French was a little less rusty).  In any case, enough to indicate notability, even if the article doesn't currently reflect that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Klausness (talk • contribs)
