Gasoline (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A cover band that has had about 5 gigs and no releases. WP:BAND states that bands that meet at least one of the criterias may be notable; it doesn't say that they automatically are. Nymf talk/contr. 18:58, 18 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete fails WP:MUSIC there are countless numbers of non-notable cover bands just like this one.  JBsupreme  ( talk ) 19:40, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep- passes 1 of WP:MUS. This group has been mentioned in articles for MTV and also in books like Guitar Gods: The 25 Players Who Made Rock History by Bob Gulla and New Wave of American Heavy Metal by Garry Sharpe-Young. RG (talk) 19:45, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: And the group also passes 6 of WP:MUS, "Is an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles. " Both Vinnie Paul and Dimebag Darrell have been in the band. RG (talk)19:54, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * None of those reference are about the band specifically. They are about Vinnie Paul, the drummer of Pantera, and what he is doing now. Nymf talk/contr. 17:25, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. In its minimal coverage, it is considered a "side project."-- Pink Bull  02:19, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - As discussed, satisfies several requirements of WP:MUSIC, including having notable members (i.e. it is a supergroup) and getting some coverage in media. WP:MUSIC 6 is there because, if this article were NOT to exist, we would have to put all material pertaining to this band in the articles of all of its members (several members have articles), which is a waste of efforts, allows for conflicting information on wikipedia, and causes all sorts of other problems. Thus it makes sense to have this article. Luminifer (talk) 03:17, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * It's hardly a supergroup, but a thing that two brothers put together to play at New Year's Eves. As I have already stated, they had 5 gigs - top. It's worth maybe 1 or 2 lines in each of the two biographies. (Which is very unlikely to cause any contradiction.) Also, as one of the brothers are now dead, the article is unlikely to ever grow beyond a stub. Nymf hideliho! 03:35, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
