Far Out Recordings

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested PROD. Article is lacking any substantive content and is basically just a list of internal links. in violation of WP:NOTLINK. The only third-party source currently included makes a passing reference to the subject, but is not enough to establish verifiable notability per WP:NOTE. Vicenarian (T · C) 14:52, 29 May 2009 (UTC) Withdrawn. The references brought to our attention here do, in my opinion, surpass the requirements of WP:NOTE. The page does need some cleaning, but I intend to help with that myself. Vicenarian (T · C) 21:05, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment Number of Google hits is a fallacious argument; "a large number of hits on a search engine is no guarantee that the subject is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia." It is the quality of hits that count. If the subject is indeed notable, then some of these Google hits should be reliable, independent third-party sources that can provide the necessary depth of coverage to prove verifiable notability. So far, I'm not seeing any hits that provide the coverage needed per WP:ORG. Vicenarian  (T · C) 15:51, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
 * As a follow up, I'd also like to note that notability is not inherited, so the fact that the label may have published notable artists does not necessarily make the label notable. Vicenarian  (T · C) 16:01, 29 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep Strong indications of notability via The Independent, CBC, and the BBC. 86.44.32.209 (talk) 17:28, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
