FRANKIE (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

WP:TOOSOON article about a band with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, and not enough reliable source coverage as of yet to satisfy WP:GNG. The strongest claim here is that their debut EP hit #36 on the campus radio charts -- but per NMUSIC #2, charting can only be the notability in and of itself if it happens on an IFPI-certified chart on the order of Billboard. And apart from a review of the EP in Exclaim!, all of the other sourcing here is to primary sources (including their own website and a press release for their EP's release party) and blurbs in local publications which are not substantive enough or widely distributed enough to carry GNG. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when they can be more adequately sourced as satisfying an NMUSIC criterion. Bearcat (talk) 13:37, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as simply not yet solid for independent notability. SwisterTwister   talk  07:36, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as per nom. Fails both WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC at the moment, but can be recreated in the future if notability is established. JTtheOG (talk) 17:33, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
