The Henchmen

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

Not Notable. MySpace never works as a reference. --Hojimachongtalk con 04:53, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Music-related deletions.   -- SkierRMH 05:06, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

This is about a band. the Myspace link is to familiarize people with a currently updated reference of band news, events, tour dates, and music.--ZombieSamuraiFromMars 05:09, 19 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah, but it's not notable. --Hojimachongtalk con 05:09, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

On the topic of Notable Psychobilly acts, the Henchmen were not listed. Since being a notable act i have listed them and given a link to discover more information that i have not listed. I am only trying to add information that was not available previously.--ZombieSamuraiFromMars 05:24, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * That would be original research, which there is a policy against on Wikipedia. --Hojimachongtalk con 05:27, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

http://henchmenpsychobilly.com/home.html Would this be a more appropriate resource than myspace since it is a link to their official homepage?--ZombieSamuraiFromMars 05:37, 19 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Just make sure it meets the notability criteria (found here). --Hojimachongtalk <sub style="color:#FF0000;">con 05:46, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

since it is their official page with links to contact and communicate with them over anything on this page, i feel it is notable. if I change the link would that fix this problem?--ZombieSamuraiFromMars 05:51, 19 February 2007 (UTC)-
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 12:49, 19 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - Just to point out, certain MySpace pages have been white listed for notability purposes. These pages are usually ones that are "official" pages (must be proven to be official) created by those working on the given media. For example, Iron Man (film), and the new Halloween (2007 film) film have their own MySpace page. For instances like this, I wouldn't simply dismiss MySpace as a reliable source, even though generally it is considered unreliable. Context needs to be addressed, and outside opinions need to be requested. BUT, in regards to what this page is, it seems to lack WP:Notability, doesn't conform to WP:BIO, and violates WP:NPOV. MySpace in this regard isn't about reliability, the fact that they exist is irrelevant, but having a MySpace page does not make them notable. I have a MySpace page and that doesn't mean I'm going to get my own Wiki article. The page seems like it's about advertising, which is not what Wiki is for.  BIGNOLE    (Question?)

 * Delete unless there is a complete rewrite to remove spammy WP:ADVERT tone and provide notability in the genre. - WeniWidiWiki 05:41, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
