Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Snow White (band)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus defaulting to Keep and w/o prejudice to a speedy renomination. After two relists there doesn't appear to be any appetite for deleting this right now, although I also note there were no outright pro-Keep votes. If anyone thinks this really needs to go feel free to renominate. Ad Orientem (talk) 14:10, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Snow White (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Source searches (Google) turn up nothing to suggest this band is of particular note per WP:BAND, merely Soundcloud links etc. StraussInTheHouse (talk) 18:27, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

 * The article mentions coverage in NME and Dazed & Confused in February 2006 or earlier, but doesn't specify when. Peter James (talk) 21:48, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I noticed that but NME is completely online and a Google search for 'site:nme.com "snow white" "olly parker"' yields no results, so if we assume good faith, at the very most it will have been a mention was a passing one in a non-transcribed podcast. StraussInTheHouse (talk) 23:00, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The NME wouldn't have had podcasts back then – I'm thinking the most likely mention of this band would have been in their weekly "ones to watch" column. But there were three acts highlighted every week, and I don't know how many years the column was running for, so there must have been literally hundreds of new bands mentioned in this column, which probably isn't going to make this particular one very notable. Anyway, without someone going to the British Library and going through the back copies of the magazine, it's going to be impossible to find out what the mention in the NME actually consisted of.

 * Ah fair point. If they were in the "ones to watch" column, it suggests that they're up-and-coming and we can expect more coverage but it seems that that failed to materialise.  It could have just been transitory.  StraussInTheHouse (talk) 10:42, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * the further coverage probably failed to materialise because the band split up barely a year after forming. Richard3120 (talk) 17:51, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Comment Hard to find any sources because of the name is common, although I managed to find a passing mention in Portugeuse - . Not enough to keep I think, unless a source in NME or Dazed & Confused turns up, I think it would be hard to justify keeping it. Hzh (talk) 13:41, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Found another one,, although I still don't think it qualifies under notability criteria, it might be possible to find more, so I'll remove my vote for delete for now and see if I can find more. Hzh (talk) 13:57, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
