[edit] Reverie

Band not notable, seems to be promotion TastemyHouse 07:50, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Are you kidding... they are amazing.... at being the worst band ever on wiki

  • Speedy. It's not even an article now. --Puzzlet Chung 10:30, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Speedy NN before and now it's empty. PJM 16:34, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Speedy under WP:CSD G1 having no content and A3 consisting of only a link to the band's home page. Capitalistroadster 17:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Speedy. Vanity. Cookiecaper 20:42, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Not a speedy, prior versions contained more than enough content and context to avoid being called 'empty" or being nothing but a link. However, delete unless some evidence of notability prsented. DES (talk) 01:04, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment - seems this page was originally a dicdef of the word "reverie" and this band high-jacked it. I like the cut of their jib (dear god not their music tho TastemyHouse 08:13, 28 October 2005 (UTC) (copied from the talk page)
    • This is true, but then a dictdef could reasonably be nominated for deletion also. DES (talk) 02:23, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment -- I reverted the page back to the original version and then added the following vote (made after the page was replaced with "Big Kitty... smell reverie") on the bottom. TastemyHouse 20:48, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • weak delete. Their number one on the mp3.com.au download chart would make them notable under the music notability guidelines (I presume it includes download charts?). But other than that there really isn't enough notability here. frankh 20:30, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
    • I personally dont think #1 on mp3.com.au makes them particularly notable -- I'm also confused as to how they got that ranking at all, considering the extremely low quality of the recording they made -- I'm not referring to the MUSIC specifically but to the production of their demo. -- While their music does seem amatuerish to me, i dont think that should particularly be criteria for deletion... I dunno it all points to "garage band". We dont have any info on how mp3.com.au does their rankings, like if it could be stuffed with a simple "vote" or "download" script. or anything. Yeah.... omglol... TastemyHouse 20:48, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
    • I Think having them #1 on mp3.com.au makes them very notable. People on other charts, such as the overall chart... are bands such as 'Fall Out Boy', one of Australia's leading bands. I understand Mp3.com.au judge there ratings on per download, per cookie/IP Address, Therefor not to have people 'upping' themselfs by downloading excessively. Also, this is not the only avenue people will hear the song... people may here it at one of Reverie's Gig's and go home really liking the song, and download it. So the fact that this band, no matter how good they actually are, cannot afford time in a recording studio to preduce a perfect copy, is irrelavant, if people are downloading the song because they like it before they heard it on mp3.com.au.
  • Delete or Rewrite -- This band's page EITHER needs to be gotten rid of OR greatly rewritten. Notable or not, when i found it it looked like a vanity page. TastemyHouse 05:36, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
