Headless (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:BAND. Support band being written about by one of its members. One ex-member probably qualifies as notable but everything I have seen only lists him as a guest rather than a full member. A current member has an article but does not seem particular notable. noq (talk) 12:47, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Goran Edman is a permanent member of the band. Please see the official website www.headlessofficial.com or ask himself (you can write an email from his official website www.goranedman.com). Mr Goran Edman is not just notable, he's part of rock history having recorded the two most significant album by Yngwie Malmsteen: Eclipse (Yngwie Malmsteen album) and Fire & Ice (Yngwie Malmsteen album)! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Waltercianciusi (talk • contribs) 16:44, 8 September 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment. I'm not convinced any criterion of WP:NMUSIC is satisfied here. There isn't much coverage around (I found this but it looks suspiciously like it's based on a press release) and the two members with articles look shaky with respect to being notable as individuals (rather than for the acts they've played in/with). I think if it's going to be kept someone will need to come up with some decent coverage of the band itself or their releases. --Michig (talk) 19:36, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

 * These 'new references' comprise discogs.com listings (not a reliable source, and these entries don't contribute to establishing notability), and an Allmusic entry with no coverage whatsoever. --Michig (talk) 08:01, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
