Open Music Score

Fails WP:ORG notability standards. Zero gnews hits that actually refer to organization/site; ghits that refer to site are generally mere mentions in lists of sheet music sites. Nat Gertler (talk) 19:19, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment zillions of links have been added in past few days as part of some WP-article ext-link farming of various content on the site by same editor who wrote this article. Spot-checking, they aappear to generally fail WP:EL, and gives appearance of this article being part of a WP:GARDEN. DMacks (talk) 20:34, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete There's no evidence of actual notability. Being "the only archive to exclusively offer XML files" doesn't make it any more deserving. In may turn out to be in the future, but at it stands /now/, I'd say not. That said, I think the only real problem with linking to the site as ELs is that the archive as a whole is pretty small. Even if the site doesn't gain enough notability for an article, it may be good enough as a useful resource. That's not all that relevant to the discussion outside of the fact that they were added by the page under discussion's creator, though. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ (talk) 21:33, 31 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment I fail to see how a few links are "zillions".  If you look at the other links they are grouped with, you'll see clear relevance and they do meet WP:EL from what I can tell .  There is no "link farming" going on here.  I can understand if Open Music Score as an article doesn't live up to WP standards.  But, I'll leave that to more experienced users.
