EgoZ

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Claims to be the subject of a half-hour special on a national TV station, which would satisfy criterion 12 of the music notability guidelines, but would be extremely difficult to verify. Prod was removed, so I'm going through the procedure for some other opinions. I remain neutral on this one. Nufy8 15:48, 1 August 2007 (UTC) 
 * Weak delete - almost no Ghits, and many of those are irrelevant. However, this is an irregular genre of music, subject to a different set of rules at: WP:MUSIC, down at "performers outside mass media traditions"  it may pass notability. Bearian 17:15, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep - by now contains a most explicit reference to the TV interview, so passes WP:MUSIC. --Huon 21:09, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep - per Huon. T (Formerly Known as FireSpike) 03:53, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - There are not enough WP:RS material to write an attributable article on the topic. Here is what I found. In January 1961, the Egoz, a ship carrying Jews from Morocco to Spain, sank. Twenty-three Jews perished. Their remains were brought to Israel with the approval of the king of Morocco in 1991, 30 years after their deaths. The event was made into the movie "Egoz". * Some Ashkenazic Jews avoid eating nuts on Rosh Hashana because the numerical value of the letters in the Hebrew word for nut, egoz (egoz is Hebrew for walnut), is close to that of the word for sin, chet. * Egoz also is an Israeli special forces unit operating against Hezbollah guerrillas in Southern Lebanon. * In any event, it's good to know that a Jewish named rock band is doing swell in Egypt. --  Jreferee  (Talk) 06:23, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per lack of reliable sources and low count of hits in the Google test, there is simply no evidence to prove they are in any way notable. -  Ca ri bb e a  n ~ H. Q.  06:48, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep Google test is irrelevant for topics like this that have little English language coverage. Non-net sources are fine, especially in cases where they help avoid systematic bias.  Eluchil404 07:27, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete "[O]ne of the more well-known Egyptian rock bands" should have numerous verifiable references, English-language or not. This one apparently has none. Precious Roy 15:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - the vast majority of the article is unreferenced and fails WP:V. Nothing in the way of RSs to stand up notability. TerriersFan 22:26, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
