[edit] Startled Calf

Non-notable band that seems to have released one demo album. --Martyman-(talk) 10:24, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete per speedy deletion policy regarding bands and band notability guideline. Weregerbil 12:26, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:NMG, [1]. Since the article mentions a seemingly notable "former" band member, it's not a speedy. PJM 12:42, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. Well, one guy was a member of The Mars Volta and At The Drive-In, with five albums between the two bands. WP:BAND says "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise extremely notable; ..." (emphasis added). I figured that means almost Grateful Dead or The Beatles... Weregerbil 13:13, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Yeah, but remember that there's a yawning chasm between what's speedy-able and what passes wp:music. I'd agree that the "former member" being in two bands with 2.5 albums each is in that chasm. - brenneman^{T}{L} 13:23, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Both At The Drive-In and The Mars Volta meet 5, if not more, of the lines in the Musicians and ensembles criteria. I don't see why either would not be notable enough. The article just needs some redirects. Raggedy 10:05, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
