The Class Notes

 * — (View AfD)

Prod was contested. College a cappella article which does not meet the notability requirements of WP:MUSIC or the verifiability requirements of WP:RS/WP:NOR. Only claim to notability is performing concerts at their own Cornell and travelling; travelling only if it rises to the level of a "concert tour reported in reliable sources"; not if the only one who took note of it was the group itself or its local college newspaper. Multiple, non-trivial secondary-sources are required to establish the notability of a group. Claims from their own website are insufficient. savidan(talk) (e@) 07:05, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:MUSIC, lack of reliable sources. —ShadowHalo 08:42, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Neutral Needs independent sources. International tours help to establish notability. Special recording: how many copies sold, or only for the members to buy for their families? Are they sold generally? No notable alums?Edison 19:16, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per . . . everything. I hope someone turns the same kind of attention to other college-related pages that have the same tone and verifiability/notability issues.--Dmz5 20:25, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment And I hope someone turns their attention to rock bands which rehearse in someone's garage and "release albums" burned on their PC or from some nonselective download site, with zero print references and only blogs and their own websites to support notability.

 * Where are these groups you speak of? savidan(talk) (e@) 21:42, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You can start here: Category:Musical groups; there appear even at a casual glance to be some non-notable bands hanging out in that cat. JDoorj a m    Talk 22:06, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
