Dumpin On Anything (DOA)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Article about a musical collective, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The only notability claim even being attempted here is that one band member was arrested for murder, and the article otherwise doesn't even try to document that the band would pass even one criterion in NMUSIC as a band -- and even the footnotes are entirely crime coverage of that individual member's legal troubles, not entertainment coverage about the band as a band. And further, the band member who went to jail already has his own standalone BLP, so there's still no pressing need to keep this on that basis per se. Bands are not "inherently" notable just because one individual member of them went to jail: even if you're shooting for "band that had members who were also independently notable as individuals" as the notability claim, NMUSIC requires two members, not one, and the article neither claims nor sources that the band accomplished anything that would actually pass NMUSIC at all. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable at all, especially when we already have another article in which the same content can be addressed anyway. Bearcat (talk) 15:15, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete, does not meet NMUSIC or even GNG. No info found beyond Sound Cloud and Genius.com. Plenty of hits on the phrase, but nothing for a musical group. Oaktree b (talk) 16:12, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
