Wuds

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A7 declined because the article says they are among "the most influential" punk rock bands. Based on Google Searches, I highly doubt this. Seems like an unremarkable band, with no WP:RS and barely any in indication that the band even exists. The band does exist, but it's hard to find any evidence that they are influential. There are some YouTube video hits, but really hard to find any significant third-party coverage. Editor has only made this edit. Note: for Google searches, it seems like the band name is The Wuds, not just Wuds. There are a number of discography hits and such, but I'm not having luck with reviews or coverage. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 12:49, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment There are a couple of refs for their appearance in the 'Arrest Gloria Concert' - one in NME and another I've forgotten - which could be reliable sources. Unfortunately, they only establish playing at this concert. How important you had to be for that, I've not managed to work out. There's a heck of a lot of unreliable sources, which may be masking something better. Peridon (talk) 14:51, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Right. Too much digging required; lots of junk hits. There might be something out there, but if that's the case you'd hope the author would have included something! &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 15:12, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep Article is badly written, but the band's level of influence is indicated by at least one other article, The Youth (band). There must be some reliable sources out there... Catfish Jim and the soapdish (talk) 15:16, 20 October 2010 (UTC)


 * SPEEDY DELETE AS COPYVIO - Claim is to be "among the most influential" punk bands IN THE PHILIPPINES. I can't say that I have any particular knowledge about Filipino punk. I've never heard of the Wuds. A quick Google search for WUDS + PUNK generates THIS DISCOGRAPHY, which summarily ends things as a COPYRIGHT VIOLATION. Carrite (talk) 15:55, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
