Paperhouse (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsourced article. Band does not appear to be notable. I can find no more than trivial coverage regarding them and no reliable sources. JohnmgKing (talk) 08:05, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, unfortunately, couldn't find any real sources. Fun little read, though. Caro7200 (talk) 13:01, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete SPA editor page created 14 years ago when few among AfD monitors were paying attention. The article essentially acknowledges they are non-notable amateurs. ShelbyMarion (talk) 15:30, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - Since they are named after a notable song, searching for the band in particular can be difficult so I decided to search for information on member Jake Stephenson. I found that he has gotten a little niche media coverage for his later activities (mostly among collectors of obscure British psychedelic rock), and this band is only ever mentioned very briefly as one of his earlier endeavors. I can find nothing reliable on the band itself, and they can only be found in some basic retail listings and modern social media pages trying to convince people that they had some historical importance, nearly 30 years after they accomplished nothing. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 02:44, 31 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - Per nom, no RS. Yes, it is difficult to search for this band as most of the results were about the song of the same name by Can. I also looked up this Jake Stephenson fellow and the stuff I found was basically the same what Doomsdayer520 said. Only mentioned on fan pages and collector sites. I also looked up their Spongy Comestibles album, hoping to find at least one decent source. But nope, the sources were even worse: unreliable sites like Discogs and Rate Your Music, lots and lots of shop sites and lots and lots of blogs. No reliable sources whatsoever. To be frank, I have never heard about this band before, but they seem like the kind of band that made no waves whatsoever when they were active, no reliable media wrote about them so they remained an obscure, underground band which has no reason to be included in Wikipedia. How this article managed to stay here since 2006 is beyond me.GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 19:32, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
