Have You Seen My Prefrontal Cortex?

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable musical release. No evidence of charting. No evidence of awards. One long-form review at which doesn't look like a  WP:reliable source to me, and the WP:GNG requires a plurality of sources. PROD removed by creator without comment. Stuartyeates (talk) 04:57, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

I know the album hasn't charted, but if you read the article, you'd realise that they realised 11 or the 13 tracks on the album for free. They released their first two EPs for free also. This progressive release of music has given the band exposure to their target market. The album may not be chart-topping or award-winning, but what do you expect? This album has given the band enough exposure to headline a US tour. I think it's time for a major change to criteria for album articles. Surely if they're allowed to have a Wikipedia article than the major release that helped get them the criteria needed to have a Wikipedia article should be good enough. I'm not being unreasonable here, I'm being realistic. If people want to read about a band, they want to read about their music. It's that simple. Also, I did make a comment before I removed the PROD on the article's Talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueCornPie (talk • contribs) 09:58, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - there are a few potential sources out there online, but not a lot. Bearian (talk) 17:23, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. BlueCornPie, your argument seems to be (a) if the band is notable their album must be, too, (b) the criteria for albums are too tight. You need to make those arguments at Wikipedia talk:Notability (music), but until you convince people to change the policy, WP:NALBUMS is what we go by. The band can set up a Myspace page for people who want to read about their music. JohnCD (talk) 21:59, 8 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Redirect to A Great Big Pile of Leaves. Coverage in reliable sources are needed to establish notability.  Otherwise a redirect to teh band article were this is some information about the album is a reasonable alternative to deletion. -- Whpq (talk) 00:18, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
