 * Delete - Unless someone can dig something up in Finnish hard-copy sources, I can find no reliable media coverage of this band or in-depth reviews of any of their releases. Meanwhile, one member has his own article: Tuomo Prättälä. His article needs help too, but it can say that he was a member of Quintessence as one of his many side projects. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 20:37, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * doomsdayer520: There seems to be some serious coverage, like this concert review in Helsingin Sanomat, the dominating Finnish newspaper. (Also a lot of coverage of Emma Salokoski. We should probably have an article on her specifically as well.) /Julle (talk) 23:25, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Via Google Translate, which I admit is not perfect, that article appears to be focused on the careers of Prättälä and Salokoski, who happened to be in the same place at the same time at a Quintessence concert. Since this AfD is about the band, it appears that they are typically mentioned as a side project in discussions about the individual members, but once again I could be persuaded if significant Quintessence-centric sources come to light. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 15:00, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, there's a reason I replied with a comment, instead of an outright keep argument. (: But I'm hopeful there might be something to dig up. /Julle (talk) 15:19, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
