Maybe tomorrow (band)

Fails WP:BAND. Albums were not released by a major label. Article created by a promotional account. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 11:10, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No independent coverage found. Article is unreferenced and despite a long search I came up with none Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 12:39, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Chelsea: Hi I am from Phoenix and I saw Maybe Tomorrow twice, when they were on tour through here. Why do you want to delete them just because they were not on a 'MAJOR' label, do you not support indie labels. If your going to delete them you should also delete articles on Norma Jean, PlayRadioPlay!, Iwrestledabearonce, A Day to Remember, Converge, The color of violence, and even New Found Glory. I mean Maybe Tomorrow's cd was in best buy, that is where I bought it. They were a really good band. I don't understand. I don't think there article is hurting anything, I think it is good to have for people who liked the band and wants to read about what happened to them. Just my opinion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.111.123.30 (talk) 16:30, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The problem isn't that they're not signed to a major label - the main criteria for inclusion is that the band has to be notable. The guideline for notability for bands can be found here, and the general guideline for notability can be found here. They would need to have "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", so that could be coverage in magazines or newspapers or reliable online sources. The guideline for what a reliable source is can be found here. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 11:39, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

UserX: I too have seen Maybe Tomorrow, once at the House of Blues in New Orleans, LA. I believe they were playing with Tyler Read that night. They were a good band who disappeared almost as fast as they came. I don't see any harm with their page staying up, they seemed to have pretty decent size following, also the page is not going to help them in any sort of promotional way. They are broken up and there are no copies of their album left to be found. I say let them stay, not only were they a good and popular band in their own right, but they have close ties to numerous rising bands in the national light. In addition I know they were interviewed numerous times on radio stations throughout south Louisiana and in southeast Texas, but I think it would be hard to find records of radio interviews. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.34.248.10 (talk) 13:42, 18 August 2009 (UTC) . —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.34.248.10 (talk) 15:38, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this band. Joe Chill (talk) 19:17, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * STRONG KEEP I used to work for FYE and we carried their CD, and kept it playing in the store regularly. Very talented group, its too bad they broke up. I believe there was an article about them in either Wonka Vision or AP I can't remember which.-- Ashfromthepast
 * Unless you're able to provide sources that show they had verifiable significant coverage in reliable sources then that won't wash I'm afraid. It'd not enough to say, they were in this magazine, it has to be checkable. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 11:55, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
 * UserX: It was Wonka Vision! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.34.248.8 (talk) 14:25, 20 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - I don't see the coverage that establishes this band as notable -- Whpq (talk) 20:33, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
 * UserX: They seem just as notable at their peers from their region such as Tyler Read and Junior (band) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.34.248.10 (talk)
 * See WP:OTHERSTUFF -- Whpq (talk) 16:00, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * STONG KEEP UserX: The band has accomplished more than majoirty of other bands who have been together for double the time. There accomplishment are notable and are able to inspire aspiring musicians. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.34.248.10 (talk) 16:44, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with UserX and that notability has been established and that this article should stay. Everyone should take a second look at the article. The accomplishments of this band are extremely worthy of note. Ashfromthepast (talk) 18:55, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * KEEP John: I think this band's accomplishments puts them over the notable line —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.111.123.114 (talk) 19:52, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
 * KEEP TheBurt: Maybe Tomorrow article is notable and as are the band's accomplishments. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.169.170.194 (talk) 02:10, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. No coverage that shows this band to be notable per WP:BAND. Evil saltine (talk) 02:22, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
