Scratch21

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Poorly sourced (the only footnoted "reference" here is a Facebook post, and none of the external links constitute reliable source coverage in media either) article about a band with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, along with a completely unreferenced article about their debut EP and a social media-sourced article about their forthcoming full-length album. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which every band gets to have an article just because they exist -- real, reliable source coverage in real (not social) media, supporting a claim of notability that passes NMUSIC, must be present for the band to earn a Wikipedia article. Delete, without prejudice against future recreation if their notability and sourceability improve. Bearcat (talk) 23:23, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete Does not meet WP:MUSIC which requires substantial, notable sources and/or recording on a major label and/or charting. This band may have that in its future, but not yet. LaMona (talk) 02:03, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as not yet acceptable, nothing at least for minimal notability. SwisterTwister   talk  19:44, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
