The Mathematicians

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This band does not clearly meet the general notability guideline. Most of the references are self-published, and the article appears to be a WP:COI creation. There are some local news sources. The only thing suggesting wider notability is a story in the San Francisco Chronicle. Such coverage is sparse, so I'm leaning to weak delete. ~YellowFives 15:22, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment Does the exact same article being published in the Times Union add any to the notability, I wonder? Olaf Davis (talk) 20:08, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment : I am a fan of this band and have been watching this page. I am in favor of a weak keep, however, I am somewhat biased on the matter. I do feel there could be an article, as there are several small news sources which have covered this band. CD sales are relatively low, around ~5000. They are primarily a touring band. They used to have their own website at themathematicians.net, however is seems to be gone now. Danski14(talk) 20:27, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
