Tyrants in Therapy

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I am procedurally nominating this for deletion. It was previously subject to PROD with the rationale "Non-notable band; lacks significant coverage in independent reliable sources, failing WP:BAND / WP:GNG." After deletion, the PROD was contested at 2017062710024417, so I've restored the article. I can't comment on the content of the ticket due to confidentiality. I think notability is at best questionable, but I haven't put in serious WP:BEFORE time, so I'm making this nomination procedural and letting the community hash it out. Pinging the person who added the PROD:. ~ Rob 13 Talk 16:13, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. This band does not meet WP:BAND or WP:GNG requirements.  No new significant coverage since February.  --  Wikipedical (talk) 16:17, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment I found a Billboard review, but nothing else. Can someone do a 1980s/90s newspaper search? --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:44, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment. A paragraph in a 2000 Los Angeles Times article states that the duo had been performing "for more than 10 years as Tyrants in Therapy", that they had "made many records and CDs and found some commercial success on the dance club circuit", and that they were "riding the tide of interest in the genre" of performance art.  "Artfully Bellying Up to the Bar Scene: From the Dark Bob to Tyrants in Therapy, performance artists are moving from avant-garde spaces to nightclubs, where there are more drinkers and a lot less rejection (December 7, 2000).
 * Thanks for finding that source. The one paragraph mentioning the Tyrants in that article, however, still doesn't stand out as significant coverage to me. --  Wikipedical (talk) 19:03, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
