This Town Needs Guns

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable band; only sources are primary; appears to fail WP:V on all claims that might pass WP:MUSIC Orange Mike   &#x007C;   Talk  00:45, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - it's not a notable band yet. It might become one in the future, at which point the creator is welcome to re-create the article.  NOTE: Might also want to delete the associated album redirects at the bottom of the article - DustFormsWords (talk) 06:33, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per Paul Erik's contributions below. As far as I can tell it now does indeed meet WP:BAND criterion #1 and thus merits inclusion under existing policy, although I have to say that that seems like a ridiculously over-inclusive criterion that might need review. - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:36, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * It's just a re-phrasing of the general notability guideline, at WP:N. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 03:56, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * If the article goes, the redirects will too. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 16:03, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

 * I've added several sources. Granted, it's not the strongest referencing, but there are lengthy interviews in AbsolutePunk and in Drowned in Sound, and brief but non-trivial mentions in The Sydney Morning Herald and in The Sun. Album reviews in AbsolutePunk and in Drowned in Sound also help. I'd say there is enough to meet WP:BAND criterion #1. Keep. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 23:11, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per Paul Erik, nice save. Sources aren't great, but they're enough to meet WP:GNG. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 16:48, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
