Contested WP:PROD. My Elder Goth ♥ tells me to argue for a "keep", but I can't see significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject for this band. Please, please, prove me wrong! Shirt58 (talk) 11:56, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Strong delete. Sorry, this may be a cool band, but no coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. Not to mention that the contributors are edit-warring to maintain a version of the article that runs afoul of a laundry list of policies and guidelines, such as WP:COI WP:OWN WP:ADVERT WP:SPAM WP:EL WP:MOS. It's a lost cause, at this point.


 * Delete. There are no references to back up the article's claims and I can find no evidence for any of it in reliable sources. Therefore the entire article falls foul of WP:V. Furthermore, even if true, the band does not appear to meet WP:BAND - specifically, there is no listed Armenian WP:GOODCHART so even if "best selling" albums equates to chart success criterion #2 cannot apply; I can find no evidence to support the existence of their record label so it's certainly not notable so criterion #5 does not apply. The best bet for establishing notability would be the nominations at the Armenian Music Awards. Whether this would be sufficiently "major" to meet criterion #8 is doubtful, but irrelevant without evidence; certainly it's not mentioned at the award website: . So try as I might, I am unable to prove the nominator wrong as they requested - sorry. RichardOSmith (talk) 19:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
