Mutiny (band)
Non-notable band. "Mutiny" plus "Folk punk for punk folk"" yielded only 17 unique G hits, and their 2002 record, Bag of Oats, was released under "Haul Away Records", which yields 0 G hits. "Mutiny" plus its tagline "the Pirate Band" yields 30 unique G hits, Mutiny plus "Bodgy Tatts" (a 1996 album), 57 hits, Mutiny and its 2002 album "Digging For Gold", 136 hits, many which look unrelated to the band. The article claims that the band has performed at Glastonbury Festival, though this assertion is not sourced, and if it was, that would still not qualify them as notable according to WP:MUSIC. Included in this nom are:
 * Mutiny (band)
 * Bag of Oats (2002 album)
 * Co-op Brewery (2006 album)

Delete all.-- Fang Aili talk 23:36, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

*Delete all as failing WP:MUSIC. Only one album. Have not headlined a major festival - just been another band playing there. Unfortunately ( as they seem interesting ) just another band - Peripitus (Talk) 08:47, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all, unverifiable and fail WP:MUSIC. Awyong Jeffrey Mordecai Salleh 01:43, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep all. I added references including a review, so the article is verifiable now. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 02:29, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all Whether or not they've played that the Glastonbury Festival is pretty much irrelevant, as being one of dozens of indie bands to play a big festival does not confirm notability (nor do the links added by Truthbringer, whom has never voted to delete anything, no matter how non-notable). The band (and, subsequently, their albums) fail WP:MUSIC, pure and simple. -- Kicking222 02:56, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * At the moment, I am undecided. Last-fm states that they played at Glastonbury which if true would make them notable enough for mine. Musicbrainz has a rudimentary page on them. . Capitalistroadster 08:34, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

 * WP:MUSIC was supposed to be reasons to include things, not a bar for keeping - David Gerard 10:31, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * As I read it all of the WP:xxx notability guidlines are there to determine if some(one)/(thing) is notable enough to be able to sustain a verifyable article. Assuming Good Faith here and removing my objection though as it's not clearcut with this article - Peripitus (Talk) 12:11, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, yes. Mostly. But WP:MUSIC has been a controversial one owing to fears of its misuse on AFD ... it pretends to be a bit more than it is - David Gerard 16:15, 24 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep - I claim local expert musical knowledge. They're a notable independent band in Melbourne. Several records released, did okay on sales - David Gerard 10:31, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - If they are that notable in Melbourne could you add some street-press coverage to the article? Garrie 06:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Sadly not - I'm in London atm and don't have my archive with me (how annoying) - David Gerard 12:54, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Burn Them. All of them. - Blood red sandman 13:44, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep -- meets my criteria for inclusion. - Longhair 01:55, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
