[edit] Maps And Atlases

The link from "List of math rock groups" doesn't count towards an inclusion. That's just a list and each mbandlisted is required to meet the guidelines at Wikipedia:Notability (music). However, I agree that being included in Guitar Player may be enough to qualify them. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 04:03, 18 September 2006 (UTC)


Got it, thanks for the reinclusion, we'll watch to make sure they can stand the (short) test of time -- if for some reason they don't step up to that next level, I'll request deletion if it hasn't already been done. MrLiberty 04:07, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

If you can find a few more references for them it would be a good thing. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 04:39, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
Definitely. I just added a New City Chicago (medium-sized print newspaper) review, as well as a Cincinnati CityBeat review by a noted reviewer (Mike Breen) who reviews large well-known bands, too. What is the best way to reference printed articles without a web link, especially if they are major media outlets? The Guitar Player link was advantageous because they were in the print issue as well, but it is hard to verify easily for any magazine that doesn't archive online. Considering the Math Rock genre is tiny but growing and there are very few bands who exist within that genre, I still believe there is good cause for inclusion. No other current/contemporary Math Rock band has received any acclaim at all. Maps And Atlases is being courted for label representation as well, and is currently picking up tour dates with large bands (Digital Underground in October, etc).

If it's a book then it's easy to cite but I'm not sure about magazines. You might try Wikipedia:Citing sources for information. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 05:40, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
