Warrant (German band)
Non-notable. Unless I did this wrong, I see 0 Google hits. --Woohookitty 02:11, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I found a few relevant pages:  . The band meets the standards laid out at Notability and Music Guidelines, even though this article is poorly written and not very informative. – flamurai (t) 03:00, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, defunct band. Article does not establish notability. Megan1967 09:10, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per flamurai Kappa 09:41, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notability is a POV, therefore invalid reason to delete. Norman Rogers\talk 12:52, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: "Notability", as we use the word on this page, is not a statement of Point of View.  It is, rather, a proxy for a judgment call about the community's ability to maintain this particular article - to keep it NPOV and verifiable and to protect it for all time against subtle vandalism.  Articles on extremely obscure topics of popular culture are unlikely to draw the necessary critical mass of informed reader/editors to protect the article.  This is, of course, a judgment call.  However once that judgment has been made, it is a very valid reason to delete an article.  (no vote) Rossami (talk) 04:53, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per guidelines for musical notability. But just barely. HyperZonktalk 16:54, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as per flamurai. GRider\talk 00:00, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * The article in question does not establish that the band meets the WikiProject Music/Notability and Music Guidelines. The external links provided by flamurai also do not establish notability (unless I'm missing something everyone else saw).  Thus, I vote weak delete . Tuf-Kat 02:26, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Tuf-Kat 02:02, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Band did a German tour according to which meets point 2 of Notability and Music Guidelines. I tried to flesh out the article a bit. Tradnor 09:20, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * The external link you provided crashed my browser (after the ad), so I can't verify it. But I'll assume good faith and change my vote. Tuf-Kat 02:02, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
