Rotting Flesh (band)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable band, failed with WP:MUSICBIO. Canniba loki  20:36, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * A7 Doesn't assert notability. Also tagged their album for A9. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 20:42, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I had made the request, but an administrator denied. Thanks for help! Canniba  loki  20:51, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * And I removed it again, because as I noted the first time, this isn't an obvious case. If the two record labels are notable (which isn't obvious from Wikipedia, but doesn't mean they aren't notable), a case could be made this band meets WP:MUSIC. Also, being a Brazilian band, reviews may be in Portuguese -- has a search been done? Because these questions are unanswered, I don't have an opinion on the deletion, other than speedy is definitely not appropriate here.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  22:52, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Another thought -- it might be better to bundle the albums in with the AfD instead of A9'ing them for the moment.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  22:53, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The album was already tagged as a prod. Furthermore, I fail to see how this isn't an A7. Sure, one of the labels is a blue link, but that doesn't do a thing to assert notability here in my opinion.

 * I didn't mean to come across as criticizing the A9 tag, just suggesting that it might not want to be on the article for the whole time it takes the AfD to close (because every admin working on speedies for five days will take the time to look at it and determine the band article is still around). Sorry if it sounded like a criticism -- it was simply meant as a suggestion to make things easier for others. As to the A7, my whole point is that there are multiple albums and notability could hinge on whether the record labels involved are notable. Because that's something that requires a bit of research to determine, speedy isn't the way to go.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  00:43, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as non-notable band. (How many ARE there?)  --Lockley (talk) 22:29, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
