The Beautiful Letdown (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There is no evidence at all that this band satisfies Wikipedia's notability guidelines. One of the references is a page that doesn't even mention the beautiful Letdown, one merely makes one brief passing mention, and the others are dead links. The article has been tagged for sources for over 14 months, but nothing better has been produced in that time, and my searches also failed to produce evidence of notability. (PROD contested by the creator of the article.) The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 19:05, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per nomination - recently formed group with no indication of notability per WP:BAND, and no significant coverage online in WP: Reliable sources. Only claim of notability is founder's history with The Pin-Ups, and WP:Notability is not inherited. I would have suggested a merge to Mondo C. Castro, but that poorly-sourced article also makes a very weak case for notability independently of The Pin-Ups. The Mighty Glen (talk) 06:42, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete I ran a quick search and I can't find any sources that support WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:43, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Sourcing is problematic, as mentioned previous. Apparent vanity article; author's 4 year edit history is exclusive to pages that are directly related to the promotional interest of this band and related subjects. This article specifically, at best, is WP:TOOSOON. ShelbyMarion (talk) 09:27, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
