[edit] The Platinum Brothers
Contested speedy, some notability and sources asserted. Doesn't look like satisfying WP:MUSIC. Procedural nom, no vote from me. Duja► 15:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
The reason for contesting so quickly is due in part to the fact that the person who asked for it to be deleted, did so as i was adding more to the page(i.e. i was still logged in, refreshed the page and saw the tag attached to this page. the significance of this page can be proven through the number of pages which already mention this duo on wikipedia and link here. it can also be shown through checking any other resource which mentions them or their work. therefore i think this page should stay. i would also like to mention the fact that their work on one of their 2005 releases was nominated for a music award and if needed i can add that reference to the page. other than that, the discography speaks for itself. i am still in the process of adding to their releases. i have a list of almost 40 major(i.e. charted) releases from them. --Superkat2 15:56, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: When I marked it for WP:SPEEDY, it provided little real info, and a google search turned up nothing of interest, it resembled a page that was the usual "Highschool/College kids posting the band they made a few songs for and maybe played at a local bar". Right now, I find their notability fairly questionable, and their page in definite need of cleanup, but i've seen far less notable bands pass AfD, but then, WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS -- febtalk 16:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

- Delete - no evidence of notability; no third-party reviews, record label or sales figures. A link to their MySpace does not constitute adequate sourcing per WP:BAND. Walton monarchist89 17:58, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
