The Brendan Voyage

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Not notability. Other than its genre as Celtic music, it does not assert any notability. Wholly unreferenced other than by the label's own catalogue. Fails WP:NALBUMS.  Velella  Velella Talk 12:07, 1 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment WP:Notability looks possible. On RS review is noted in the article but listed as a cite/source.  North8000 (talk) 13:09, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

AFD withdrawn because of new refs added I am content that it has notability.  Velella  Velella Talk 18:07, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Snow Keep - you're joking here, right? The Brendan Voyage is possibly the most celebrated piece of folk-inspired music to come out of Ireland in half a century. I've added three quotations with citations, including Gramophone magazine and a 30-year retrospective programme on RTE, Ireland's national broadcaster. I don't think sources come more reliable than that. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:39, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep Just the fact that it's still in print 32 years after its release is a pretty strong indicator of notability. The label's website quotes a magazine article that begins, "The critical and popular success of The Brendan Voyage was as ground-breaking as the music itself." and this page has more press quotes from what look like reliable sources.  It's true these quotes are coming from the label's website, but unless we're accusing them of simply making them up, and there's no evidence of that whatsoever, then this is both notable and verifiable.
