Trybesmen

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Found this article about this band. The article asserts "chart topping", but I see nothing in Google in the way of anything reliable to that effect. Mostly blogs and WP articles are turning up in a Google search.  Dennis The Tiger  (Rawr and stuff) 23:55, 13 October 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Comment. Amongst the Google News results linked above is this one referring to this group as "top Nigerian performers". Phil Bridger (talk) 22:32, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom unless "chart topping" claims can be somehow magically verified, of course. JBsupreme (talk) 16:22, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I added some newspaper articles to the article that talk about them in some depth.Prezbo (talk) 02:23, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. I added a little more, the article now cites several independent reliable sources. The BBC called the group "legendary" in 2005 . Regards, HaeB (talk) 23:11, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. There are plenty of good sources, including several stories in Nigeria's paper of record Thisday. Really the delete voters are too poor at sourcing to be contributing in the area of deletion. 86.40.59.30 (talk) 16:57, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
