Tokyo Heroes (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Japanese underground band that does not appear to reach notability standards per WP:NBAND. Members do not have independent notability, none of their albums or songs have charted, and although they are signed to a label, Art-Pop Records, it is not a "major" record label and they have not released any full-length albums under this label (nor have they ever). Current sources in the article point to primary sources and routine listings. I, Jethrobot drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 05:54, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. Articles sources are primary or non-WP:RS. Searching in English sources confirms only that they exist, but nothing useful towards notability. Translated Japanese sources appear to just be primary listings, sales sites, and blogs. I also could not find an entry for them in the Japanese WP space, either under their English or Japanese names. Fails WP:N. If better sourcing can be found, happy to have another look. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 04:09, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Reliable sources are extremely unlikely to be forthcoming. Alessandra Napolitano (talk) 21:26, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. I did a Google search in Japanese and found nothing like a reliable, third-person source. There is not even a JP wikipedia article. Note that if this is deleted, the pages created for some of their recordings should also be nominated for deletion if they have not been already. Michitaro (talk) 01:44, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
