Traditional Crossroads

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No indications that this record label rises to the notability requirements of WP:ORG. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:16, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete No evidence of notability, and also rather promotional in character. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:39, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - some Gnews hits indicates that this label seems to obtain some relevance for this special kind of music; so it may meet WP:ORG.  Dewritech (talk)  18:41, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Rather than just indicating that there are "some Gnews hits", it would be more helpful if Dewritech could actually provide individual links that he believes constitute significant coverage. None of the Gnews hits I found pass the level of "mention in passing".  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:48, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - there seems to be few independent sources (among a ton of false positives) so I'm not sure it's actually notable. However, in its present form, it is nothing but a large amount of spam. Thus, if it's actually notable, it should be incubated until it is written without spam in a non-promotional fashion with proper sources. ETA: after verification, what I thought were external links were actually just misformatted Wikilinks. Still, doesn't solve the notability and promotion issues.--70.80.234.196 (talk) 23:40, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: Once one winnows out the G News hits to remove the chaff, you're left with 100% "Soandso's next CD is being released on the Traditional Crossroads label." This doesn't remotely close passing the GNG - where's the subject being discussed in "significant detail?" - or any other notability criteria.   Ravenswing  21:06, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
