The K-Otics

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

Borderline on WP:BAND. Hard to say, as the main source in the article is this blog. Possibly passes #11, as the article states the band got heavy rotation on WBAM; I'm not sure if this is considered a "major radio" network. Also potentially passes #5, as they had one single released on Bang Records, and another single potentially(?) released on FAME Records (if FAME can be considered a "major record label"). Ambiguity could be cleared up if I could find online sources, but there are few. Perhaps someone has access to other media to help this article pass notability guidelines.

 * Delete This is all I can find and it's not a RS but it describes the group as having a regional fame. There are likely some old paper sources that could be used to source this article, but I really don't want to dig them up; I can't find any sourcing we can use at present.
