The Deans List

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable music group. Creator even said they are "up and coming", which is a red flag to me. No references. Fails WP:Notability (music). EnDaLeCoMpLeX (contributions) • (let's chat) 20:16, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Tentative delete. We have one reliable source in the article, but I'm unable to find a second one that would nail the band's notability. --  Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 00:24, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment: The article had been tagged for speedy deletion before this AfD, but it was under criterion A3, which clearly no longer applies. --  Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 00:24, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails all aspects of WP:NBAND. Safiel (talk) 04:21, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. Searching on just their name generates tons of non-applicable hits, but if you add in one of their big singles, like "Dear Professor", you get tens of thousands of results: interview in The Source, a much better overview of the group than its admittedly stubby WP entry, Webster Hall concert review, etc., etc. Last.fm shows 250,000+ plays by 40,000+ listeners and youtube shows 50,000+ listens for each of twenty videos, reaching as high as 250,000. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 17:19, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
