On your page it states that you are an inclusionist, yet you have marked this page for deletion. Please explain. Also, I apologize if this is the improper channel to do this through. Please bear with me as I learn.Boychik (talk) 11:14, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. No assertion of notability.  Vegaswikian (talk) 05:28, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 *  Weak Delete. Per nom. They seem to be garnering a little media attention right now with their "Kill Bill O'Reilly" song (e.g. ), but notability is not temporary and there is no evidence of lasting notoriety, or meeting any other WP:MUSIC requirements. Article can be recreated if this story goes anywhere. Yilloslime (t) 16:52, 19 August 2008 (UTC). Struck "weak". Only five news.google only finds 5 stories, and most are blogs. Clearly non-notable.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  Wizardman  16:56, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep assuming this is considered a reliable source. Umbralcorax (talk) 23:10, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment: They were cited on Countdown with Keith Olbermann in the "World's Worst" segment as a result of the above source. Not sure if that makes them worthy of an article in and of itself, I'm leaning towards keep, but not enough to "vote" that way, per se. Wizardman  00:59, 20 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep Currently in quite a lot of controversy, receiving attention and a response from Michelle Malkin as well as major media outlets such as Fox and Myspace. Personaly i think the removal of this article from wikipedia is jsut further censorship of there current issue after myspace has already shut down there songs and some links. Don't try and censor this issue, this isnt china! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.233.246.2 (talk) 15:18, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete The song may be notable for its controversy at the present, but the group itself fails to meet WP:MUSIC. The content related to the controversial song could be merged into another article such as Bill_O'Reilly_(commentator), but only if the controversy of the song persists, which is doubtful.

 * Delete As per above.  Lady   Galaxy  22:28, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete- only claim to notability is one controversial song and some crystal ball stuff about the October release date. That's not enough to convince me notability requirements are met, but I have no prejudice against recreation if these guys make a name for themselves after their album comes out.
