[edit] Conquistador (band)
I prodded this earlier, the prod was removed but no comment about its validity was made so this is here. Article is about a band that doesn't seem to meet WP:MUSIC, with the main claim of notability seeming to be that they collaborated with another band on an album. The article's also confused whether it's about the band in the title or its supposed head figure, Alex Antebi. - Bobet 16:19, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

- Delete. I originally dealt with the author of this, the frontman of the band, when he began to unhaltingly plaster a pure fluff version of it across Conquistador [1]; this was after his own article was speedily deleted [2]. After I reverted what I considered pure vanity additions to the conquistador article several times, he argued (I think) that the additions were acceptable because the sites offered in their content don't sell products [3]. I eventually gave up so I could continue to revert vandalism rather than be blocked for 3RR on a vanity addition. User:Djmakeout persisted with his edits [4], all of which have been blatant self-promotion [5] [6], even going so far as to create duplicates of the first article [7] [8].
More relevantly to the article, the band's only solid evidence of notability is that it was on some Levi's commercial and "collaborated" with another artist of questionable notability. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 20:16, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
