Terabithia (band)

1st AfD

I would like to nominate this article for deletion. I was one of the members of this band and the person who created it was not in the band. It's my feeling he only created it to promote himself as "producer," which I've already deleted. The previous arguments for keeping the article online are laughable at best. True, we did receive a number of 3rd party reviews and a spot on the CMJ Charts for a couple of weeks, the importance of the band is trivial to anyone outside the band's inner circle, which did not include the aforementioned "producer." Most of the good stuff we recorded was right before we broke up as a 4 piece, something this article doesn't even mention. Please delete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evertonpalmer (talk • contribs) 2007/02/28 21:21:35

 * Comment - By the way, the edits bolstering the producer/production weren't part of the original article. --notJackhorkheimer (talk / contribs) 23:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nomination and lack of external sources. Also given the one-line nature of the article, Wikipedia will not be any the poorer without it. A1octopus 19:54, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Sufficient notability for Wikipedia.  I've added a few more refs and will try to incorporate some more information into the article.  While they didn't make much of a dent in the indie rock scene, to be sure, people do still remember the band (like me).  --notJackhorkheimer (talk / contribs) 23:34, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - the Allmusic review reads ...begins interestingly enough, but a few short moments later, it devolves into sadly conventional indie rock -- the big chords, big melodies, and big dynamics are all there and handled competently, but there's not enough content behind them to attract a great deal of notice. File with the vast number of indie bands who sounded tolerably good during the mid-'90s, but can't hope to stand any test of time. Perhaps there are some better sources available? --Debsuls 01:19, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete You might be the only person who remembered us as a band. While I'm interested as to how you know about us, anyone who does remember us doesn't need Wikipedia to remind them.  If they know, they know.  Besides, the lack of any kind of real information available makes this entry even more questionable.  Delete. --Evertonpalmer
 * Keep. I created the original article because I wanted to learn more about the band whose CD I picked up in an open-air market in Union Square ten years ago. I still think the reasons for keeping this article the first time around continue to apply.  I don't believe that a little vandalism is grounds for deleting an article that would otherwise stand.  If this article is missing important information about the history of the band, the proper response is to add that information, not to delete the article.  skoosh (háblame) 01:37, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
