Scapegoat (band)
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Does not meet notability guidelines as is and I found zero additional coverage. Previous AfD claims 1. Notability per WP:BAND #5 (at least one album was released by Tragic Hero Records so it might qualify there, but that alone wouldn't clear it for me) and 2. Coverage potentially existing in "outlets like Alternative Press and Absolute Punk" which was not linked and said to be "difficult to surface through casual Googling". Worth considering, but that comment is over two years old and nobody's tracked down said coverage yet so its existence is still only an assumption. QuietHere (talk) 06:41, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete All per nom. The previous keep result appears based on the assertion that sources might be found, with no evidence of them actually existing. I searched, and couldn't find anything. The best I came up with is what appears to be an advertisement in a 2006 issue of Punk Planet. Jfire (talk) 16:38, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

 * I could only find two reliable sources reviews, one at PunkNews here and one at AllMusic here, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 23:41, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @Atlantic306 when you say "imv", do you just mean that those are the only sources you saw which were reliable in your view? QuietHere (talk) 04:54, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, I didn't find anything else. I just mentioned those in case someone found more sources but on their own they're not sufficient for WP:GNG in my view Atlantic306 (talk) 15:07, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * @Atlantic306 I should've asked earlier but I'll at least do it now: are you saying you also agree with deleting per the GNG fail you mentioned? Just so the vote is clear. QuietHere (talk) 14:15, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, but i'd need to reconsider if someone finds extra good sources, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 17:59, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
