Finger Eleven

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Three sentences from the LA Weekly discussing how bad this band is are the only evidence provided of real world notability. A series of links to the band's own website, a succession of twitter comments, and group of Facebook links do not constitute independent, reliable, secondary, non-trivial sourcing. I think this article needs more than that bad LA Weekly review to actually warrant a standalone article. KDS 4444 Talk  16:03, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep Clearly WP:BEFORE not done; band has Top 40 hits and usually just the one clinches all notability; the Juno win seals it.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 02:35, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
