NEXX

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Let's start by analyzing the sources:


 * Cruft, cruft, cruft,
 * Blog post, blog post, blog post, blog post, blog post, blog post
 * Tabloid trash and again (Libertatea is a tabloid, while ele.ro is a women's gossip rag)
 * Local paper announcing a concert

Well, we don't even have to dig further into the WP:MUSICBIO criteria, because the article plainly lacks credible sources that would attest claims of notability. - Biruitorul Talk 15:24, 2 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Strong keep: A notable band with charting record that reached the top 3 of the Romanian chart. Article duly sourced by multiple publications despite the objections of proposing colleague for deletion of article. NEXX hit "Synchronized Lips" reached number 2 in Romanian Singles Chart staying in the chart for 10 weeks. See: March 8, 2009 entry at List of Romanian Top 100 top 10 singles in 2009. Multiple hits. Winner of Eska Award and Romanian Music Awards. werldwayd (talk) 17:15, 2 April 2015 (UTC) werldwayd (talk) 21:14, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Impressive claims, to be sure. Present reliable sources, and they'll gain credibility. - Biruitorul Talk 04:24, 3 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep Much of the sourcing is quasi-primary and some of the secondary sourcing is bloggish in nature, but at least a couple of the sources are from acceptable secondary publications that represent reliable sources and it seems likely more could be found to further support notability.

 * Keep - some sources are from reliable and acceptable grounds.--BabbaQ (talk) 09:56, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep-Never heard of them till well now, but upon reading that they have had success, seems to be a keep! Wgolf (talk) 03:25, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
 * The above votes are basically instances of WP:ILIKEIT. Just which sources attest the band's notability - the cruft, the blogs or the tabloid gossip? - Biruitorul Talk 21:02, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
