Willet (band)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

A generic Christian rock band with no reliable independent sources, no assertion why they are in any way notable. Guy (Help!) 21:40, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Adding their recorded output -

section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion states that "to avoid speedy deletion an article does not have to prove that its subject is notable, just give a reasonable indication of why it might be notable." Willet meets the notability requirement for music Willet's page by having two charted hits ("We're Not Keeping This Quiet" and "Taste") on CHR. Bathysphere (talk) 03:22, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Which is why it isn't considered for speedy deletion, but is instead discussed for deletetion here (AfD = Articles for deletion, see there for more information). --Amalthea (talk) 14:03, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, fails WP:MUSIC. I looked for a bit now, but I can't say that they pass any of the criteria. Shoutlife (no RS) asserts that two of their songs charted ("Top 20 on CHR Loud Chart"), but I can't find any mention of that, and doubt very much that this refers to a nationwide chart. WEATHERED STEEL RADIO doesn't seem to be a "major radio network" either. Should this be deleted I'm afraid all the album and EP articles will share the same fate. --Amalthea (talk) 14:40, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

just to clarify, it was originally considered for speedy deletion, which is why my above post is worded as such. Bathysphere (talk) 18:43, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  JForget  23:23, 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Have scoured numerous Xtian music sites too and can't find anything to sufficiently source for passing WP:MUSIC criteria either - and agree per User:Amalthea re conclusion for fate of recordings. Plutonium27 (talk) 17:19, 4 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - a shame if the information about their AIDS charity work is true, but I can't find anything either that passes WP:MUSIC. Wheelchair Epidemic (talk) 23:01, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete No reliable sources found. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 04:12, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
