Virus (British band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This band has been tagged for sources (there are none) and notability for seven years. The page is a magnet for BLP violations, as happened with a spate of editing today. I looked for reliable sources to help improve this situation and I could not find any (others may have more success). I don't believe we should continue to have this article in the absence of any sources. Fences &amp;  Windows  18:24, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - as per nom. I reverted a whole swathe of junk edits but could see nothing of value. Some subsequent editing to shape it up a little has revealed the dearth of any shreds of notability.  Velella  Velella Talk  19:41, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep - I found possible references quite easily; my first google. Not a great many, but they do exist and nothing to suggest that more couldn't be found.  The band is minor, but passes WP:BAND without difficulty.  The article is not disastrously bad, it simply needs improvement and cites.  It has attracted vandalism of late, but that is not a reason for deleting articles. -- Escape Orbit  (Talk) 15:27, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Escape Orbit, I also looked for band members. Difference is, I didn't find reliable sources giving significant coverage. Show them here please or better yet add them to the article. Fences  &amp;  Windows  00:07, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as there's nothing else better at all, searches found nothing better and there's simply nothing else convincing. Even if this could actually be improved, it's best restarted....if ever. SwisterTwister   talk  07:21, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
