Tumor (Band)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Seemingly non-notable musical group per WP:BAND. Creator removed speedy without comment or alteration.  tomasz.  14:53, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Weak keep - Band exists and plays major venues, discography is correct, and main artist (Pohl) is notable in Germany. I'm saying weak keep because finding 3rd party sources specifically about Tumor proves to be quite difficult. Usually the band is only mentioned as an aside in articles about Pohl. Everything else seems to come from their own label's website. (A label which appears to be run by... Pohl.)   SIS   21:50, 18 September 2008 (UTC) 
 * Comment This band appears to be a project of the singer Chris Pohl, who has an article on the German Wikipedia . Pohl appears to be notable as a musician   . I can't find any WP:RS for the group Tumor, so maybe this article could be incorporated into a new Chris Pohl article?  Bláthnaid   talk  19:19, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, article fails to establish notability as per WP:MUSIC. Article lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. Even by admission of those above, the Tumor references are trivial. Seems to be enough for a Chris Pohl article though.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 05:20, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and then create a redirect for an article about Chris Pohl.  Corvus cornix  talk  19:08, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
