Maximum Capacity (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This looks to be a hoax. The entire album and single discographies contain false information—it appears this band has not charted or have had albums certified anywhere—and I can find nothing to verify the band's presence on any of the labels listed. Further, I can find no significant coverage in reliable sources for the band, which one would expect to find for "one of the biggest selling acts in all of Canada". The band's MySpace page indicates they "are beginning to Rock the Canadian music scene" and are looking for a label. At this time, they do not meet WP:N or any of the WP:BAND criteria.

I am also nominating their individual album articles, none of which satisfy WP:N or WP:NALBUMS as there is no significant coverage to be found in reliable sources for these recordings. Edit: there is also a separate discography page, which I've added to the list below.

 * Speedy Delete all as hoax. -- Dennis The Tiger  (Rawr and stuff) 17:28, 11 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete all as hoax. Even their myspace site contradicts data in the article; Myspace site mentions that they made an initial demo in 2002.   PK  T (alk)  03:04, 12 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete all - and consider SALT too. Someone did a lot of work on this elaborate invented history... they should have put all that effort into getting a gig. For the record, note that some of the albums are listed as having been released by Immortal Records, which went out of business so it is impossible to verify the existence of those albums on the record company website (which is defunct). They also apparently have releases on Atlantic, Epic, and Island, but the official websites of those noteworthy labels beg to differ. This band is also nowhere to be found at the leading music retailing sites like CD Universe and Amazon, and they have everything. And get a load of the peak chart positions in the Maximum Capacity discography!!! This band with several top ten albums in America somehow is not mentioned in the chart histories at Billboard. Gotta wonder if their music rocks as hard as this hoax. D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 03:52, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
