SoundBox Banditz

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Fails WP:BAND. Only real claim of notablity is a single newspaper article that was on a different subject but happens to mention the band in relation to the newspaper article's subject. The two editors associated with the band and  have also made other claims of notablity, such as the music being used in a high school football team's video. Even if that were true (and no independent reliable sources have been provided), it would still not make the band notable. Singularity42 (talk) 21:36, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep The article was not on a different subject.The subject was music.Which is what the band does. Multiple links are on this bands page which proves it notability.

 * Okay, the article was on two subjects, the band being one of them. I still dispute that the article meets the WP:BAND criteria on its own. Ourstage, MySpace, and Soundclick are not reliable sources. Singularity42 (talk) 21:48, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment: Multiple !votes are not allowed. I've replaced your redundant "keep"s with "comment"s. You may continue to comment, but do not attempt to "stuff the ballot box". Decisions are made by consensus and on the merits of the arguments presented, not a straight vote count, so it doesn't really accomplish anything anyway. &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 19:30, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete The article doesn't provide us with enough references to show in-depth coverage from reliable sources, and as such fails the notability guidelines. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 05:59, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

So by what you have posted, is it to say that the article shall be deleted??Redwolf5000 (talk) 02:42, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The article had been relisted, which means it'll stay open for another 7 days to generate more discussion and a clear consensus. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 15:41, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

After Deliberation has SoundBox Banditz been allowed to keep their wikipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.117.182.103 (talk) 05:28, 14 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. The newspaper article is about them, I won't dispute that. But it's local news in a local paper, so it doesn't count for much WRT WP:BAND. Their CDs are self-released, and I can't find any evidence that they have gotten a track in national rotation or gone on tour (or even performed at a live show). Just the hip-hop equivalent of a garage band. &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 17:35, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
