Shampoo (parody band)

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

I PROD'd this article with the reason, Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSICBIO. It was opposed by the article's author, with the reason " I think that the band's notability is established by the fact that they were the first Beatles tribute band albet in a parodic guise." Notability is not inherited, so I do not believe this argument constitutes notability. — Mcguy15  (talk, contribs) 03:32, 3 April 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Keep They seem to be notable in Italy, even if they're not well-known internationally. Notability in one country is enough to justify keeping the article.JMB1980 (talk) 17:33, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep, some coverage from La Repubblica and Corriere del Mezzogiorno . The band is also discussed in a recent book by Renzo Arbore. Cavarrone  21:13, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Is there any Italian-speaking editor willing to put the time in to write prose from these sources?Not a rhetorical question, if there are any, please do. I agree the article is probably notable from these sources, but the sources aren't going to add themselves, and as it stands, the article will continue being an WP:OR unreferenced mess after the AfD. — Mcguy15  (talk, contribs) 15:17, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
