[edit] Fancey

Fancey (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Content is " Fancey is the solo project of Todd Fancey who is a member of Canadian indie rock group The New Pornographers. Fancey released his first album in 2004." No assertion of notability whatsoever. It's a project, not a band and thus can't be speedied. Contested prod. MER-C 12:33, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete still. What this "project" sounds like to me is a one-man band. Therefore, still a band. The article says nothing to make me think that this is anything but an artiste going solo under a (not very imaginative) name. Therefore a resounding non-notable according to WP:MUSIC.

• Keep Delete I don't think this is a speedy, I just think its an awful article. The New Pornographers are a notable band on Matador Records (most well known in the US I think for working with Neko Case.) I think this might qualify as "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such." from WP:BAND. I suggest renaming the article Todd Fancey (most of the other New Pornographers have their own articles) and including this info about his solo work. Dina 17:24, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Comment Okay the creator of this article has created another one titled Todd fancey. I've dropped a note on his/her talk page about why that wasn't a really good idea. I might take a stab at cleaning that one up though, and then change my vote here to delete. Dina 17:31, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I worked on Todd fancey and am now changing to delete on this one. (Now if I can only get the title capitalized properly) -- if the editors involved still feel its not a worthy subject for an article, I suggest we find a way to speedy Fancey and nom Todd fancey to put it through its paces. Cheers. Dina 17:56, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I've suggested the author "db-author" this article and concentrate his or her energies on the article Todd Fancey. We'll see how that goes. Dina 18:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
