Never Heard of It

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

Article about an unsigned band. The article contains some assertions of notability (numbers of CD) but they are not supported by any reliable sources (short blurbs in directories and self-published info only). Falls far from WP:MUSIC, and fails verifiability. &mdash; Coren (talk) 05:43, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Sigh. While I hate to say it about a band whose music I've got on my iPod, I've just spent an hour trying to dig up sources for the international touring and so forth. The closest I've been able to get to reaching WP:MUSIC is that they won an Electronic Arts competition in 2007 that I can't find much of anything else about. Beyond that, unfortunately, nothing.

 * Weak delete. There are plenty of assertions of notability and plenty of sources out there to support them. Problem is, none seem to satisfy WP:RS. I'm sure there's gonna be some out there somewhere, just a case of finding them! Unless any can be found, I can't really see the article staying. Nouse4aname (talk) 11:45, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:MUSIC. Unsigned band.  The primary claim here is their claimed number of CD sales, but when examined that doesn't hold up: it says that's their total number of sales, and divided by the 7 releases mentioned it averages out to less thn 3% of what they'd need to have a gold record in the US.  And even that weak claim isn't sourced, nor is anything else in the article.  Note that the article says they're split/defunct, and while that certainly isn't cause to delete on its own it also means no additional notability is forthcoming.
