[edit] Leslie and the Ly's
A page I speedied, although I probably should have brought this here first. This article actually has a long history, which is surprising to me because it has no direct evidence of meeting WP:MUSIC. If it does, add a citation to the article. Otherwise, this ought to go. Grandmasterka 22:52, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete misses WP:MUSIC by about five hundred miles. —ptk✰fgs 22:56, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as above. Gazpacho 23:16, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep based upon the same arguments provided at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Leslie Hall. The are numerous sources within the Leslie Hall article, most of which cross over to this one. RFerreira 23:47, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep having just voted on Leslie Hall, I cannot understand why this is listed seperately? Both of these obviously related afd listings should be merged. ALKIVAR™

- Comment Because the question of Leslie Hall's notability with regard to WP:BIO is separate from the question of her notability with regard to WP:MUSIC. Why don't you hop on over to WP:MUSIC and find some place that this band passes the guidelines? There is no entry at AMG, less than 1000 google results, nothing on Amazon — there are millions of bands in this world, and not every one of them should be documented here. This is an example of one that should not. —ptk✰fgs 00:51, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- When I search on Google I receive over 10,200 (that's ten thousand, two hundred) relevant matches for "Leslie and the Lys". Why don't you hop on over to Google and try again? RFerreira 01:13, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- okay, well, whatever. I was using the spelling from the article title. Now, how again does this pass WP:MUSIC? Or does pretty much anyone with a microphone and a web browser qualify these days? —ptk✰fgs 01:20, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- Sarcasm will not take you far. I cannot tell if you are trying to be intentionally dense or not, but this band has received broad mainstream press coverage as has been noted in the Leslie Hall discussion. RFerreira 01:26, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- Please, indulge us with a link to this coverage. I see blogs, a cdbaby page (anyone can sign up for that, you know?), some myspace pages, some stuff on ifilm and flickr. None of these are what we call "non-trivial published references". —ptk✰fgs 01:29, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- So you're the only one who cannot see the mentions of VH1, MTV, and TechTV appearances? Sorry. RFerreira 01:31, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

- Keep. Yes, the evidence says that the band is notable. -- TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 16:29, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
