Equinox NC (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

I restored this article as a contested proposed deletion. I see no indication that the article is anything more than an advertisement for a non-notable subject. In Google News the text strings "equinox north carolina" and "equinox band" (both far broader than would be necessary to drill down to the subject) get no hits relavent to any North Carolina band. Searching in google web for "equinox north carolina band" gives you very little apart from some social media sites, us and the band's website. I added the word band because there are a few companies in NC with the name equinox and they swamp the general results. Protonk (talk) 17:47, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong delete - could and should have been speedied. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  17:58, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I consider it bad form to act on a good faith contest of a prod then turn around and summarily delete the item. AfD seemed better. Protonk (talk) 18:56, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - Not a whiff of notability, either for the general guidelines or the specific band/musician one. The UNC chancellor, Holden Thorp, is a member, and even searches with his unique name + Equinox turn up very little. Tarc (talk) 18:33, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
