 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested PROD and no reason was given. non-notable band. One song reached No. 48 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart meaning No. 148 overall (in 2010) http://www.billboard.com/music/stereoside/chart-history/heatseekers-albums/song/664601. That certainly did not garner any media for the band and they fail WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. Walter Görlitz (talk) 16:32, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

Delete. Per 1st nomination, the main argument for keep was based this subject having a track appear for one week at #48 on the Billboard Heatseeker chart. It is not an important source for gauging a recording’s accomplishment. The chart exists primarily for the benefit of retailer’s to track new or previously unsuccessful artists and their relative position to actually charting on Billboard’s top 100, based on sales or airplay. As low of a placement as #48 is not much of an accomplishment; it could simply reflect pre-orders, and when such a release disappears after one week, that is usually the case. (FWIW, Walter Görlitz (talk), it’s doesn’t even translate into #148, as there may be non-qualifying “heatseeking” artist in the top 200 who chart higher.) In fact, #48 is so dubious in importance that in the years since this subject’s appearance, Billboard has stopped tracking anything beyond #25. Otherwise, my google search finds the subject covered in minor music media and blogs, trivial promotional, but nothing significant that distinguishes the band from run-of-the-mill existence.

 * Delete. Not notable for stand alone article as pointed out above. Trivial. Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Kierzek (talk) 16:35, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
