V05 (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

NN local band that fails WP:NBAND. Their coverage is almost entirely local, and there's a lot of it that does not meet RS, especially when it comes to their "awards". The end result, however, is that they are an unsigned indie cover band. MSJapan (talk) 18:05, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete There does seem to be lots of local coverage. The MVT reference seems to satisfy #11 - the rotation element of WP:MUSIC. Gab4gab (talk) 17:20, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * In all fairness, that's questionable - MTVu is not the same as MTV, as it is only available on 750 or so college campuses to students living in on-campus residential housing, and only through the on-campus television offerings. If that's the only requirement they meet, and only did so for a week, I don't think it meets the "significant coverage" aspect.  It is still grossly outweighed by the "unsigned indie band" portion, which basically precludes them from most of the other requirements.  Also, most of the coverage is not RS, but I've erred on the side of not hacking it out. MSJapan (talk) 18:06, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Ah, I was not aware of the limited scope of MTVu. Changing to delete.  Which I haven't done before. Gab4gab (talk) 22:11, 16 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete "unsigned cover band" pretty much says it all. There are reviews, but all localized in Madison-specific sources. This seems to be a band that isn't known beyond one city. LaMona (talk) 00:09, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete An absolute delete. Non-notable band (known only in a city). Btw, I had previously raised concerns about this article before and said it was actually eligible for G11. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 04:01, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as I'm simply still not nearly convinced by what the article contains and its sources included, none of it suggests the needed substance, and with nothing else suggesting better, delete is best. SwisterTwister   talk  05:11, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
