Endsville (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I've been unable to find any reviews or feature articles about this band or its one album. I have also tagged the article about the lead singer Keith Jolie. If that one is kept, this article should be merged into it; otherwise, it should be deleted unless another editor has more success in finding reliable sources to reference. The CBC link is a user-created profile, not an interview or a review. &mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 21:08, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete – I searched a library database of newspaper and magazine articles, in hopes of finding something to support WP:N notability. I found a few mentions of a Calgary band called Endsville, from the 1990s, but based on their location and their lineup it does not appear to be the same band as this one.

 * For that matter, I suspect that even those sources don't actually point at a band named Endsville. Huevos Rancheros — a band based in, guess where, Calgary, in, guess when, the 1990s — released an album called Endsville in 1993. Which explains my initial "hey, wait, I know that name" reaction to the title of this discussion. Bearcat (talk) 15:55, 27 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete. I actually, quite unexpectedly, was able to find a couple of glancing acknowledgements of this band's existence in a ProQuest search — one WP:ROUTINE concert listing for them playing Lee's Palace in 2007, and a brief namecheck in an article about bassist Morgan Phillips writing a short play for SummerWorks in 2008. But neither of those things confer an WP:NMUSIC pass in and of themselves, and I can't find any other information about them that would. As always, a band is not automatically guaranteed a Wikipedia article just because they exist; they must actually pass an NMUSIC criterion for something, and be sourceable over WP:GNG for the achievement of that something.
