Vanity Beach

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND. No sources whatsoever (ditto the articles for their two albums), just OR on the part of an almost entirely SPA editor regarding articles related to this band. There's one article from 2007 on Blabbermouth that just says they were regarded as a hot new act by Metal Hammer magazine and that they were recording new material, but that's the only thing I can find of note about them – there are a couple more passing mentions on Blabbermouth as part of festival line-ups. The band appear to have split up late 2014/early 2015 as their social media goes dead around this time, and lead singer Jonas Karsten now appears to be recording solo material under the name Musta Jonas. Unless there is something in Finnish print media I can't find anything that would qualify this band for a Wikipedia article. Richard3120 (talk) 20:27, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages for the band's two albums, as they are also unsourced and both fail WP:NALBUM, with no reliable independent sources found:


 * Delete: a bit of crafty googling couldn't come up with a single RS covering the band. Fails WP:BAND. Captain Eek  Edits Ho Cap'n! 23:34, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete only sources not mentioned by the OP that can be found are event-websites that advertize their gigs, nothing in Finnish either. --Pudeo (talk) 22:41, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete: Totally promotional. Actaudio (talk) 07:07, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete all (the band and the two albums). The band's article is an attempt at promotion, and I also can find no reliable coverage beyond brief listings of their existence and their presence at a few festivals. Meanwhile I can find no reviews or news coverage for the albums, which are merely listed in the usual retail/streaming sites. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 13:37, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
