Les Gentlemen

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This 1-sentence, 1-ref article on a band, that only says that they were 'popular", was PRODed under A7. It was de-prodded on the basis that it has a single reference. I could not find sufficient evidence of notability of this band under wp’s notability rules, including sufficient multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in reliable sources that are independent from the band ensemble itself.  Others are welcome to try. Epeefleche (talk) 15:14, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - A Google Book preview is available for the reference in the article. The reference identifies pages 289-303 in the book which would appear substantial.  My own review of the source only found a passing mention on page 294.  I also found another passing mention in this book.  Essentially, this verifies that Ralph Thamar was a member of the band, and not much else. -- Whpq (talk) 14:42, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
