Heroin Jake and the Crack Addicts
Delete - per nomination. Non-notable group. The article is highly self-aggrandizing (qv. "orgasmic experience"). Only Google reference to these guys is a Guardian article - and only because they allegedly sing a single song in Esperanto. D.valued 06:04, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment - Removed the line regarding the "orgasmic experience." It's not worth this page being taken down because of one line.

Just becuase this D.Valued user does not have respect for the language of esperanto and obviously does not do research as the band Heroin Jake and the Crack Addicts is making progress in Atlantic Canada which has a culture and music which is different than the rest of North America does not give grounds to delete this article. Also, he should learn to spell.


 * Comment - Replies to User:JLEG: Well, I didn't win the spelling bee, only because I botched one vowel there as well. Esperanto hasn't got anything to do with it, save the fact that the only Web reference from Google with the name of the group as the search term - both with ampersand and with "and" - is a coincidental mention, not a mention about the band per se. In addition, based on your contribution history - solely limited to a vanity article and articles pertaining to this group, which apparently you've worked with - it is impossible to see you as impartial. Also, it is rude to not suffix your posts with your name (it's simple; add four tildes, et voilá.) D.valued 08:34, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment: The VFD tag was removed. Guessing that  142.68.90.167 is a Nizzle/JLEG sock puppet.


 * Delete - fails WP:MUSIC. Much puffery and self-aggrandisement. Beware of record labels with Hotmail.com email addresses (as mentioned in their reference). B.Wind 14:48, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
