The Hip Abduction
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NBAND, not much has changed since 2016 AfD/speedy deletion. I attempted to PROD this under a somewhat IAR assumption that PRODing articles that were speedy deleted while an AfD was ongoing were eligible for PROD, but contested it so I am bringing it to AfD.

 * Delete - promotional. Deb (talk) 18:47, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - the name-dropping reminds me of the WP:GARAGE essay. No evidence of meeting any WP:BAND criteria. And, in my opinion was wrong. An article that has survived AFD is ineligible for prod. It's OK to prod a new creation of a previously-deleted article, because there was no prior AFD discussion on the second creation of the article (although the policy isn't really clear on that point). You could have proposed speedy deletion WP:G4, instead of prodding it, though. ~Anachronist (talk) 06:24, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes,, the policy isn't crystal clear. All it says is: "It must not be used for pages PRODed before or previously discussed at AfD or FfD." But the PROD template seems to go with my interpretation because it alerted me about the previous AfD. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 11:38, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The policy is definitely not clear. I didn't nominate it for G4 because I'm not sure that G4 applies because the article wasn't "deleted via its most recent deletion discussion", it was speedy deleted around the discussion.  Overall, the policy pages seem to ignore the possibility that AfDs are closed before a discussion has a chance to occur.  W 42  11:45, 25 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete per nomination. They recently released a new single, so, yep. -The Gnome (talk) 09:18, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
