San Salvador (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

the closest thing this band has to a claim to notability is being formed by former members of Sounds Like Chicken and someone who went on to join The Middle East which imo is not enough for wp:music. the band lacks coverage in independent reliable sources, having looked on google and factiva. a redirect to the Irish band of the same name made sense to me but was reverted, justified by a member joining another band sourced by myspace. duffbeerforme (talk) 10:31, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, looks like I misread Notability_(music)'s Criterion 6 for musicians and ensembles; so yes, the current state of the article doesn't show notability. It is still possible they meet that criteria if Dave Powys' musical prolificness extends to reliable media sources. If that can't be found within a couple of months then my vote will be for deletion. While it may have to you, redirecting to an Irish band that displays even less notability doesn't make any sense to me. Kineticpast (talk) 02:17, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, hadn't looked at Irish bands article, I've prodded it now, a redirect to Sounds Like Chicken would have been better. Looking for coverage for Dave Powys finds only listings unless he is the Powys from yachting. duffbeerforme (talk) 01:14, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
 * If it does get deleted it would make sense to move the content about the crossover song to Sounds Like Chicken's article. Kineticpast (talk) 02:48, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

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


 * Merge and redirect any useful content to Sounds Like Chicken, which while not ideal, is really the only place for this content. It does not meet WP:MUSIC otherwise. Xymmax So let it be written   So let it be done  00:14, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
