Lodestar (band)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article has been marked for questionable notability since October 2007. Few significant additions have been made since, and there are no sources. A search of news archives finds two mentions of a band called Lodestar in the US and one in Singapore, but these appear to be different bands from the one described here. Fails WP:Notability (music).

 * Comment: It needs sources. If none are forthcoming, it should be deleted for lack of verifiability, but it does pass notability based on the Senser connection, if that can be proven.  Who then was a gentleman? (talk) 22:55, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: Contrary to my nomination, the band meets WP:Notability (music), as they released two records with A&M Records. I'll edit the discography on the page. Cnilep (talk) 23:45, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes MUSIC#5 - AfD is not for cleanup. An article should not be deleted if it has no sources!  Lugnuts  (talk) 07:47, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Lugnuts, I believe that Cnilep was alluding to Music#5 in his comment above yours. The problem, I think, is that the claim to having two albums released on a major lablel has to date only been asserted, not verified.  Un  sch  ool  15:30, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I've added a ref from Discogs and an article from Kerrang! magazine from when they supported Tool. Hope this helps!  Lugnuts  (talk) 07:44, 31 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep - two CDs on a major label. Bearian (talk) 19:52, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Sources to prove that claim? Who then was a gentleman? (talk) 18:36, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
