Iroha (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

What little info is sourced is mostly coatracking. One member claims notability with a charted single on the "indie charts" but I can't tell which chart they mean. Overall, the members may have a shred of notability but the band itself doesn't. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 04:54, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

The 'Indie Chart' noted in the article and references is the 'original' Indie Chart or 'Independent Chart' that was compiled purely from sales of independent records/retailers. The meaning has been usurped over the years but there was only ever one, original 'Indie Chart'. This is discussed in the literature referenced. The fact that all three members were either in notable bands (Final, Rumblefish - all with their own Wiki entry) or are currently still play in a notable band (Jesu - again with their own Wiki entry) makes the band notable as followers of said bands would agree Acrmcr (talk) 21:26, 19 January 2011 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Selectively merge then delete. The band contains members of other notable bands, but not individually-notable members. The fact that this band exists and that members of those other bands are involved merits a mention in the articles about those bands, but there appears to be no claim to notability at present for Iroha, and most of the content here is about the members' previous bands. Perhaps when the album comes out there will be enough coverage to justify an article.--Michig (talk) 06:50, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
