Lowrider Band


Although it may now meet WP:MUSIC, the band really doesn't seem WP:Notable. Also, as it's been speedily deleted 3 times, once under WP:CSD (and possibly G12); once without a stated reason, but probably db-spam and db-repost, and once under WP:CSD. I don't think the A7 or db-bio problem has been resolved, but, with this much history, the AfD process is probably the way to go. &mdash; Arthur Rubin | (talk) 13:54, 28 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Strong keep - I was not aware of the deletion history associated with this page, but shouldn't we be judging the article on its current state, rather than its past incarnations? I would argue that given the significant notability of War, and seeing as this band consists of more original members of War than the band now known as War, making its notability under WP:MUSIC criterion 6 more significant than your average side project, the subject certainly meets WP:NOTE and the other cited policies.  The current page is sourced, does not read as advertising, and is not copyright infringement. Other editors may disagree with my assessment, but I remind them to consider only the current version of the page; since the page has been modified enough not to warrant , all previous versions should be considered moot in this discussion. —Swpb talk contribs 15:55, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Or Merge and redirect, per Danny Lilithborne, unless the article is expanded in the course of AfD. —Swpb talk contribs 21:30, 28 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep or Merge and redirect to War (band). No strong preference either way, but obviously this should be in Wikipedia in some form.  Xtifr tälk 17:21, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I would Merge and redirect seeing as there's not really enough here for its own article. Danny Lilithborne 18:43, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - meets WP:MUSIC and, although it is now a touring (as opposed to a recording) band, Lee Oskar is notable enough to sustain the article (although the articles of each of the four members are in dire need of revamping). Call the current article a stub - it'll do for now. B.Wind 00:38, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
