Nakia and his Southern Cousins

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

Non notable band that falls a long way short of meeting WP:MUSIC. Even the winning of a local award is not backed up by the supplied reference Nuttah (talk) 09:42, 5 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete per WP:CSD. Although it seemed to have one "Best New Band" by a local newspaper, the reference provided does not even list the band in the top ten of any of the three categories. Way short of WP:BAND.  Red  Thunder  12:10, 5 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete (not speedy - listed sixth in best new band category - claim of importance) I do not think that the level of reliable sourcing exists on which a verifiable article could be based, of the sources that appear in the article, one is an interview in a blog, one is a list on which they are placed sixth in the Austin music awards best new band category (with no additional information) and the other is a review on a site called Twangville, which even if it did count as a reliable source - with a reputation for fact checking and accuracy - I'm not sure if it could be the basis of an article.

 * To be fair to him, I think Red Thunder is saying that even the sole notability claim doesn't stack up as verifiable. --Dweller (talk) 13:17, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
