Claims of notability are not borne out by the references provided (which are mostly to the group's own website or to a forum posting made exclusively to promote the group).

 * Userfy I think the current article fails to meet WP:CLUB. However some (weak) news sources are available (like this one) though a lack of more general matches in Google Books or Google News makes it likely that this will take a fair amount of work. Happy to change to a keep if more substantial independent sources added whilst the AfD is open. Fæ (talk) 13:35, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Note, after IRC discussion with the article creator, a version for them to draft changes on was created at User:Zulmar Jofli dos Santos Junior/Gardiner Street Gospel Choir. Fæ (talk) 13:58, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Comment - Have found mentions in some books, if suitable will be working on adding them today(11/10). Also will continue Wikifying (adjusting some word-choices/pov, cleaning up the present references to Wiki-standards, etc.).  Shearonink (talk) 14:14, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The mentions that I saw in Google Books are from books whose complete text in unavailable there. I added what I could and adjusted some word-choices. Shearonink (talk) 02:12, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Even though the article's creator has now adjusted some text, they have been notified of apparent copyright violation issues in the article here. Shearonink (talk) 14:50, 14 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep - article has significantly improved and made major changes and also meets WP:CLUB now. I strongly recommend keeping it.  JoeGazz  ▲ 01:37, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
