Handmade (Gravity Noir album)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Non-notable album, part of a promo-ring of articles about the band (AfD), a movie created by the band producer (AfD), and three other albums by the same band (all long since redirected), all by same editor (with no other interests). Only sources are extremely local coverage (this is from the section "in the neighborhood / Hoboken", this newspaper has next to its general coverage also coverage per municipality or like here sub-municipality) because one of the singles raised money for a good cause. It's a British band, released in the Netherlands and worldwide, but got no attention beyond the village of the producer. Note that the album has no 5-star rating from Allmusic, it has one glowing "user" review who gave it 5 stars, which is meaningless. Fram (talk) 07:13, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - does not pass WP:NALBUM. As Fram points out, the AllMusic 'review' is a user-submitted one. There appears to be no worthwhile coverage of this album and it wasn't a successful release so we can't presume notability in the absence of significant coverage.

 * Delete, or Redirect to Gravity Noir IF their article survives it own in-progress deletion discussion. This album appears in a fair number of sources but they are all promotional hype, meaning that the album had a lot of backing from managers but was ignored by the music media and the public. Nothing reliable can be found. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:04, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The article for Gravity Noir has now been deleted, so if they're not notable neither is this album. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:07, 12 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment Band's article has been deleted, the movie they were premiering has been deleted. It would be odd for this album not to be deleted.It was released on CD Baby, which seems to be a notable record label, I'm not sure that alone is enough for notability. I can't find reviews of this album. Oaktree b (talk) 11:48, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * CD Baby is a publish-on-demand label, like Lulu for books. It's an important distributor, but being released one CDBaby is more of an anti-indicator of notability than anything else. Fram (talk) 12:09, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
