The Black

Article on living people without proper sourcing; I couldn't establish that they meet WP:NBAND or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 10:21, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Very weak keep, though I could understand if others disagreed. Their latest album had several reviews, though two of them I found were only in university media. They dug a pit for themselves by not having a google-able name! Sionk (talk) 10:47, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete The link to the website goes to David Longoria's page now, indicating the band has ceased to exist (for the moment). With two self-released records and an EP, it fails the WP:BAND criteria. It could be incorporated into a page about Longoria who seems notable enough, should he put out a solo record at some point. Karst (talk) 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Not a lot of non-local coverage found, but there's maybe just enough from these to merit an article:, , , , . --Michig (talk) 15:28, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep as subject just crosses verifiability and notability thresholds. That the band is apparently no more is not relevant since notability is not temporary. - Dravecky (talk) 13:17, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
