MIT/Wellesley Toons

 * — (View AfD)

Nomination for deletion Encyclopedically non-notable student singing group which has a couple of records available through a self-publishing service and has done some touring of other colleges. The first AFD did not involve much discussion. Keep !votes revolved around assertions that 1)Chorallaries have an article too (i.e. the Pokemon defence... I'm dubious that they're encyclopedically notable, but Chorallaries at least can make the claim that they have been somewhat successful in international singing contests), and that 2) bands with smaller fanbases and fewer (self-published?) records had articles too (no specific band articles were offered as examples. Such articles no doubt exist, but should be deleted under WP:MUSIC too).(oh, there was also the assertion in the first AFD that the bulk of WP:MUSIC doesn't apply to Collegiate a cappella groups - to which I go "eh?"). No Wellesley College Senate Bus jokes please, I'm British. Bwithh 03:06, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. 1st AfD was an aberration - crz crztalk 07:08, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. MER-C 07:17, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete They seem notable but that's got to be my personal bias, and if they actually are, the article fails to assert that. —ShadowHalo 09:22, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Do not meet WP:MUSIC. If there's general consensus that college groups should be held to a different standard than other musical groups, than WP:MUSIC should be edited to reflect that. Dpbsmith (talk) 23:04, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
