SPURS (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:BAND - no recordings released in their name, Googling Spurs Arcuragi Hartley (to siphon out many non-music related references but should find articles on the band) finds nothing indicating import. Article is sourced to an event listing, a streaming service listing, and an article that does not mention the band. Nat Gertler (talk) 02:12, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Love this band. It's a new project by Adam Arcuragi, was wondering where to find them. So excited about this!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reddredd (talk • contribs) 05:42, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete non-notable band spam. no albums. article even says "The band is set to release their debut studio album, in Spring of 2015" so we're still a year away from maybe having a debut album appear (WP:CRYSTAL). getting lucky once and being mentioned in a bbc web article does not make an otherwise obscure entity encyclopedia-worthy.Cramyourspam (talk) 18:35, 1 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment please admins watch this discussion for removals of DELETE comments, like this one by IP 174.127.6.10. be alert for WP:SOCK too. i wonder if the IP which removed my delete is related to the user Reddredd who removed the AfD tag from the band's article (a bot restored it). thanks all Cramyourspam (talk) 20:53, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Added more reliable information, related articles and references, as trying to build out this article effectively. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrieRacket (talk • contribs) 21:13, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

The song "Cobra Tie" that was released on the charity album "Songs After Sandy" is a SPURS song, they listed as Adam Arcuragi initially, but on the physical release copies of the album, it is "SPURS, feat. Adam Arcuragi" please see the Last.fm page reference, wherein this is listen correctly. "Cobra Tie" is also on the upcoming album. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrieRacket (talk • contribs) 21:19, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment i believe there's WP:SOCK or WP:MEATPUPPET going on. i believe users BrieRacket and Reddredd and IP 174.127.6.10 are connected and that there is COI at work. Cramyourspam (talk) 18:50, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment this should be a SECOND delete nomination, actually. we can see that user Reddredd blanked a previous AfD for this article. must mention to User:NatGertler who did the earlier AfD. Cramyourspam (talk) 18:55, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
 * no, it is still the same deleteion nomination. Deletion of the template does not stop the AFD; generally, as in this case, a bot just puts the template back. Nat Gertler (talk) 19:13, 8 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, NorthAmerica1000 15:39, 9 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete. Doesn't appear to meet WP:MUSICBIO. There's very little coverage, and no albums at all. Hopefully it can be found somewhere, but I didn't even see a reliable source for the members of the band; all I see are references to Adam Arcuragi. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 03:32, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
