NN Youth Band in Singapore. All members NN, advise move to userpage of main contributor. Kareeser|Talk! 18:06, 24 February 2007 (UTC) most of the information in this article is irrelevant, even if it is verifiable. For example, Wikipedia is not a roster: look at any other article about music groups and you won't find a list of every single person in the band; plus, how notable are any of these people? And Wikipedia is not a PR page: this article has more propaganda vocabulary than an average company website. and also a if they have the need for it (go to www.mediawiki.org) Schroedi 09:49, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable music group, organised at the national level, has won numerous awards and performed in other countries. Its history dates back to 1969. This is not your usual youth band, selection is highly competitive and membership is a stepping stone to a professional music career. --Vsion 18:40, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment &mdash; Of course the main website would promote their own band as highly competitive and helpful in establishing a future music career... I could even say that on my own wind band's website, but they don't have an article on WP, now do they ;) Kareeser|Talk! 23:25, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Actually, there are plenty of independant online chinese sources that can verify the facts, such as those from the government of taiwan., . Good luck to your band, btw. --Vsion 23:40, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - only external link is to their own site, so no evidence of multiple non-trivial coverage by independent sources to establish notability per WP:BAND. Delete unless sources are added to demonstrate notability. Walton monarchist89 19:33, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge useful content to Singapore Chinese Orchestra and remove lengthy lists. Should be the best course of action for now. -  SpL o T  { 新年快乐! } // 02:42, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge with Singapore Chinese Orchestra because
 * Comment or suggestion would be for SYCO to setup their own wiki
 * Comment. In its current form, the article tone fails WP:NPOV, violates WP:SPAM and WP:NOT. The subject may be notable, but a massive cleanup will be required if kept per Schroedi. Ohconfucius 08:03, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
