Overdrive (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Band does not meet notability standards. No charted songs, no notable albums. References are all either from the EXIT Festival, or other sites' simple listings of EXIT Festival acts. No other independent coverage that I can find, at least not in English. Very difficult to verify anything presented.

 * Incubate to encourage research, then delete if notability can't be established in a reasonable period of time. Given that there are probably non-English sources that could establish this band's notability I am hesitant to delete it in a process that lasts only a week or maybe two and which isn't designed to rescue articles.  It needs more time and attention from local or subject-matter experts.  Criteria of Notability_(music) that this band might meet but which aren't in or aren't clearly in the article include 1/non-trivial coverage, 4/tour, 5/major+major-indie label, 11/rotation, and possibly others. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail)  01:33, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Incubate to Article Incubator/Overdrive (band) per Davidwr. If, after a reasonable amount of time, there is no improvement to the article, then delete. Cunard (talk) 00:54, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Incubate per above, may have potential if thrown out to where someone can dig up any possible Serbian sources. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 01:21, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
