Hearts Over Rome

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I speedily deleted this before and it's back, now with a little more info and footnotes. Still, the band has only one album which was never released, it was signed to a label (apparently) but that label never produced anything by the band. See WP:MUSIC for the relevant guidelines.

 * Delete Primary source is MySpace. A single album does not meet the requirements of WP:MUSIC. DarkAudit 02:48, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Short lived band with little/no career whatsoever. Article is badly written too. vLaDsINgEr 03:00, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:BAND. They don't even have their own website anymore; are they a now defunct band or something? -- Cielomobile talk / contribs 05:48, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:BAND. GlassFET 15:49, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment ok well the bands mets all these items off the WP:BAND page.
 * This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, and television documentaries2 except for the following:
 * Media reprints of press releases, other publications where the musician/ensemble talks about themselves, and advertising for the musician/ensemble.
 * Works comprising merely trivial coverage, such as newspaper articles that simply report performance dates or the publications of contact and booking details in directories.
 * An article in a school or university newspaper (or similar) would generally be considered trivial but should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
 * Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country,3 reported in reliable sources.
 * Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.


 * and they did release an album through Undecided Records. please see. regaurding their website, Wayback machine is an acceptable way to veiw their site which has since been deleted. and with the way the music industry is going a 3 year career is not a short run. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xedgexbikerx (talk • contribs) 16:46, 31 May 2007


 * Delete fails WP:BAND, despite above claim. One review on a non-notable online review site is the only "published work" referenced. All the other references are show listings, an online store, the band's (defunct) website, and a MySpace page. There's no national tour reported in a reliable source. As for "the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city", for some reason when I think of Florida metal, Hearts Over Rome is not one of the first bands that come to mind. The label that put out their album does actually have some notable releases but that's a pretty weak claim to notability. Closenplay 20:10, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
