[edit] The Kominas

Only real claim to notability is appearence on an MTV spinoff. Fightindaman 19:10, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Keep Being taught about at a University and being on MTV (even if it is a spin off) seems like plenty of notability Lyo 19:53, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Delete as written. No Allmusic.com entry, and articles doesn't contain any external sources to verify notability per WP:MUSIC. Would change to Keep if sources were added. --Alan Au 20:44, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
• Very Weak Delete Asserts notability - featured on MTV spinoff, covered in fringe press, taught about in a university. Does that satisfy WP:MUSIC? I'd say... almost. --Hyperbole 21:50, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

--punjabifire 18:12, 24 March 2006 (UTC) *Keep Adding sources involves linking in a language I am not familiar with. If any would like to help me, I could send them the proper websites. Though a google search will pull up everything but the MTV interview, which is set to air on Monday. http://www.uark.edu/misc/honors/honors.info/colloquiaSpring2006.htm

I'd hardly call Muslim Wake Up! fringe press. A stop on their website confirms their notability. http://www.muslimwakeup.com

• Comment The problem with MWU might be that it is largely blog host, and WP:MUSIC discounts such coverage. However the band might meet the qualification "Has established a tradition or school in a particular genre." Esquizombi 23:20, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment But there is a diffrence between a personal blog and a blog that's in a news set up. Slashdot is set up similarly and can be called a blog but things getting posted there are still a big deal(ish). According to Alexa. Muslim wakeup is ranked 50,246. And while that is certainly not actuandingly high. It's not particularly low either.[1] Lyo 00:35, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
