[edit] Dufus (band)

I'm not familiar with this band, and came across a speedy on one of their albums: The Last Classed Blast, which I add to this AfD. They have an allmusic entry [1] and a heap of GHits. I abstain procedurally. Samir धर्म 21:23, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

• Also, add Ball of Design, which was speedied already, to the above -- Samir धर्म 20:58, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep: I initially submitted this for speedydel, then added prod2. I happened to come across some information though, that was not asserted in the stub initially. This band will be touring internationally in support of its new album. This should satisfy WP:BAND and therefore establish notability. ju66l3r 21:48, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep: they seem to have toured before and have a European tour and American tour scheduled to support their latest album. --Walter Görlitz 00:12, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:05, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
• I created the article. I have added a bit more info on the band, as well as links to PopMatters album reviews. The reason I created such a bad article is because I don't actually know that much about the band, so I was expecting other fans to contribute to the article.
• Another of their albums, Ball of Design was speedily deleted, before I was even aware that it had been tagged. I have a link to a PopMatters review of the album. Would this enable the wiki to be reinstated, and if so, can I retrieve the info that I had already wrote (it's not much but it was annoying).--Macca7174 13:56, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment I'll undelete Ball of Design and add to this AfD. -- Samir धर्म 20:58, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Speedy Keep: AMG only lists three albums, but two on ROIR seems like enough to qualify under WP:BAND. Less sure about the album articles—perhaps those should be discussed separately. Xtifr _tälk 23:14, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Comment: opinion seems pretty unanimous now, especially given that nom abstained. Xtifr _tälk 10:22, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

• Keep per WP:BAND. - Lex 09:34, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
