Non notable band who fail WP:BAND. Only sites and refs found are fansites and myspace etc. Non relaible sorces found and tag confirms this therefore the non-notablity.  Athe Weatherman   18:01, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Weak Delete - while a couple of reliable sources exist (a BBC review, for example), they are by no means significant. No indication of chart success. -- Scjessey (talk) 20:37, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * There's no requirement that they have chart success for them to have an article under wp:band.--Epeefleche (talk) 01:59, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment. The BBC article is one leg of criterion 1 for me.  I would be interested in hearing some views (especially from the UK) on Glasswerk.  I see we have a number or WP articles citing to it. (or any more sources, such as the Bath Chronicle article hidden behind a pay turnstile).  Am leaning keep.--Epeefleche (talk) 10:18, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Another comment. I see they've also come out with one album and a number of singles on notable labels--had it been two albums and no singles, the would clearly meet the wp:band criteria.--Epeefleche (talk) 01:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Week keep. Based on the BBC article, the other press, and the notable label releases.--Epeefleche (talk) 01:58, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. What Epeefleche said. There appears to be enough coverage to pass WP:BAND, with sources including two BBC articles and one at Drowned in Sound .  Gongshow  Talk 07:21, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment The BBC has regional divisions covering local news, these articles are from BBC Southampton. Cassandra 73 (talk) 19:04, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Still works for me; couple with the other indicia of notability. Thanks.--Epeefleche (talk) 19:31, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete: I don't think that local news show notability. Joe Chill (talk) 17:15, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey Joe. Why not?  As I read wp:music, the only requirement is that it be an RS.  Tx.--Epeefleche (talk) 09:53, 27 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep – The subject meets WP:BAND criterion #1, with non-trivial coverage in independent sources BBC.co.uk, Drowned in Sound, North Wales Weekly News, and coverage (and therefore airplay, almost certainly) on Xfm radio . Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 03:32, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
