 * Delete: Non notable. - Rjd0060 (talk) 06:02, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Neither WP:N nor WP:MUSIC have notability guidelines for labels (which is kind of a shame), but WP:MUSIC does state as a notability guideline for artists: "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." In the list of artists on the label I see quite a few notable artists: The Stone Roses, UK Subs, Jane's Addiction, etc.  I think this is sufficient to establish the label as an important label, and thus a notable label.  It absolutely does have to be cleaned-up though.  Torc2 (talk) 09:37, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Strong Keep It is clearly notable, having signed some of the biggest indie bands in the UK in the late 80's and 90's. scope_creep (talk) 12:42, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. They have distribution and they have signed notable bands. That makes the label clearly notable. - Mgm|(talk) 16:03, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Commment most of the Google searches for "Revolver Music" + "Paul Birch" or "Revolver Music" + "Stone Roses" come back to WP (or mirrors). The only vaguley reliable hit was this page  that states RM was formed in 1985, not 1979 as claimed by the current article. Lugnuts (talk) 17:05, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep There is no reason to delete it. It's also notable. --businessman332211 (talk) 17:21, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Revolver -> Silvertone is-to Stone Roses :: Sub Pop -> Geffen is-to Nirvana. Needs cleanup, not delete. --- tqbf  19:02, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
