The Four Hundred (band)
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This article seems to be trying to cover two different incarnations of the same band, but I don't think either of them is notable. I can't find any significant coverage of their original incarnation as the Four Hundred, and the only source in the article is a blog post. The Journal Sentinel article on Light Music is at least one source providing some semblance of significant coverage, but the other references either aren't independent of the band or aren't significant, and I couldn't find any additional ones. (All the links are dead now, but they're archived in the Internet Archive.) I just don't see this passing WP:BAND.

 * Delete, no evidence of reliable sources found, no evidence of a possible WP:BAND pass. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 23:52, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - As The Four Hundred they achieved nothing but a few minor blog mentions and low-on-the-bill festival gigs with more famous acts playing later. Therefore the article can be deleted under this name. However, after they broke up and some of the members regrouped as Light Music, that band received some pretty solid newspaper coverage in their city, e.g., , . Light Music might actually qualify for a WP article if anyone wants to create it, but that can be a separate endeavor some other time because they are two different bands with a few shared memebers. The article being discussed here is about The Four Hundred and they are not notable. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:27, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
