Muddy River Nightmare Band

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

Article that asserts significance for a band, claiming tours of US and Japan. I am unable to locate reliable sources that verify this. Google news shows they had gigs in Seattle and Portland, and even Vegas,but not US tours. The paucity of news hits does not even show local notability. The article creator has an outside connection with the band which complicates the thing, viz http://www.sorenwinslow.com/MRNB/Bio.asp and http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Muddy_River_Nightmare_Band&action=history Furthermore, |RIVER|NIGHTMARE|BAND[&sql=11:jcfixqedld0e~T2 Allmusic does not give any info that shows notability. Nor does Billboard. No evidence of two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels. The thing has been speedied twice and then I prodded. I am not satisfied with the PROD, and am sending to AFD.  Dloh  cierekim  02:08, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete. I know it's redundant, but seriously, there isn't a single substantiated claim to WP:MUSIC inclusion criteria here. - Vianello (Talk) 03:58, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No references and I cannot find any sources independent of the subject either. Fails WP:BAND. smooth0707  (talk) 02:32, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete I'm not finding any evidence of these "tours" either. makes me wonder if this unsubstantiated claim was added simply to avoid CSD.  This article has been deleted previously.--RadioFan (talk) 02:46, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete Hasn't this already been speedy deleted several times? If so, why go through the AFD process, when The article's author ought to be receiving article creation warnings. I nominated it initially, seeing no third party reliable sources, and much of the text was nonsense. Why is this up for discussion? (Consider the questions rhetorical) .

 * Delete - I just don't see any coverage in reliable sources. While Google hits are not the beall-endall of sourcing, I can't find a single mention of them that isn't promotional. TN X Man  03:24, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I failed to mention nothing in books or scholar, either.  Dloh  cierekim  03:57, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment Note also that two incorrectly named and likely unnecessary Oregon-related categories were created for this band. If someone has time to do the honors at Cfd, that would be great. Katr67 (talk) 23:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
