How famous does a band have to be in order to merit an article? They released a CD on a record label, and it got reviewed by third parties. Is this not enough? skoosh &#91;&#91;User_talk:Skoosh&#124;(háblame)]] 17:19, 31 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Weak keep See WP:BAND. Fame is subjective, but whether they've been noted by the media and/or the charts isn't.  This one might be a keeper, might be notable--the article includes one independant music review.  Unfortunately their name gets an enormous number of google hits because it is used in a lot of other places.  Perhaps someone familiar with the band could provide an additional reference, otherwise it probably isn't going to meet WP:BAND.
 * That's exactly why it's so hard to find information on this band via search engines (excluding the term "bridge" seems to help). In fact, even the term Terabithia in Wikipedia just redirects to the article on the novel. Part of my motivation for writing the article, in fact, was to attract casual editors who could add something I don't already know.  Thanks for the link to WP:BAND.  At this point, I'm not sure if this band is notable enough to have an article either, but here's another short online review, for what it's worth. I'll let the community decide. skoosh &#91;&#91;User_talk:Skoosh&#124;(háblame)]] 19:43, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Given that you found two independant reviews I'd say they have a tenuous grip on notability. As far as I can tell, both references come from independant, non-personal sources with some editorial control, which is the standard for WP:RS. That should be added as a reference in the article.  I'll put down a weak keep. Tarinth 22:34, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Two non-trivial independent reviews does meet the requirements of WP:BAND. -- Charlene 02:03, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
