 * Delete Notablility not established for WP:NN, WP:MUSIC TonyTheTiger 15:58, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Although I found this and this, neither of those sites seem discriminating in what they include. There don't appear to be any independent sources, so not-notable. Trebor 21:07, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Official Swedish music chart page has no search results thus notability couldn't be verified .  Lajbi  Holla @ me  22:55, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Do Not Delete - Sources :
 * 1) http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=6369
 * 2) http://www.unmoored.com/
 * 3) http://www.pulverised.net/unmoored.htm/
 * 4) http://myspace.com/unmoored/ --Dexter prog 23:05, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * None of the qualify as independent or reliable unfortunately. The official website and myspace are obviously not independent, and link no.3 isn't working for me. The other site, from a brief perusal, appears to accept submissions from anyone and has only a cursory method of approval (it also says that the band are unsigned, which doesn't augur well). Most people will require better sources in order to !vote keep. Trebor 23:12, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Metal-archives.com has a very hard criteria for bands, they check if the band exists, has records released and if it is metal. It is more than a reliable source, being the metal site with the biggest archive is notable to be mentioned. Anyway here you have more sources of this well-known band:

 * 1) at media club
 * 2) at metalstorm.ee
 * 3) at the end records
 * 4) at ebay
 * Sorry, but none of these links qualify as a reliable source. Merely being a band in existence with records selling does not indicate notability. These sources are either not independent or contain trivial mentions of them, so at present, there is still a lack of sourcing. Trebor 20:44, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If all those sources are not reliable, then 80% of wikipedia underground/not very popular music banda's articles should be deleted... --Dexter prog 22:06, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If you see other articles for which sources meeting WP:RS can't be found, feel free to prod them or bring them to AfD. ShadowHalo 10:41, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
 * As he said, Wikipedia cannot always be consistent in its coverage, but existence of another similar article is not a reason to keep (see here). Trebor 16:26, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
