Wintermute (band)

Recreated speedy. No doubt this band are on way to notability, but they're not there yet. Played a few gigs, won a competition to play at the Leeds/Reading Festival, but none of this hits WP:BAND. Feel free to disagree!  E LIMINATOR JR  00:40, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Non-notable band. Realkyhick 01:51, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. If Wikipedia deletes everything because it's simply not popular enough, what distinguishes wikipedia from the mainstream encyclopedias, besides its obvious lack of credibility? Basically, I just don't understand how the most ambitious information-gathering project in the world could possibly treat more information as a bad thing. It makes no sense. But hey, keep deleting information. That won't piss people off at all... . I come to wikipedia specifically to find information that isn't plastered all over the world. If you keep deleting it, you're really doing yourselves a major disservice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.251.170.117 (talk • contribs) 2007-08-03t03:50:40z
 * You might want to read WP:N and WP:NOT. --B. Wolterding 15:24, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable enough for an encyclopedia, no reliable published sources. -- Jeandré, 2007-08-03t11:31z
 * Speedy delete. Non-notable band. Keb25 13:32, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, delete; I find some discussion of them with regards to the contest, but it looks like a local battle-of-the-bands type thing and I don't think it'd meet WP:MUSIC criteria. Looks like the band's building some steam, though, so no prejudice towards recreation when they've got more buzz, and an album out. Tony Fox (arf!) 22:03, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete There is a lack of info there which would justify notability however it does not meet speedy criteria though just because it is nn.--JForget 23:39, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete—They had a national tour of the UK, but WP:MUSIC asks that there be coverage in reliable sources, which are not forthcoming. does not quite qualify. --Paul Erik 06:43, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep "A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, etc.) is notable if it meets any one of the following criteria" WP:MUSIC. C4 has been met with the national tour. Article definitely needs some work though. spazure (contribs) 09:51, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Claims notability which is enought for it to escape a speedy, but the claim isn't backed up by citations or references, which would be necessary at a minimum for a keep. Stifle (talk) 14:01, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
