[edit] Article reposted

This is informational only regarding a band. The links do not go to any site that sells merchandise, but rather, is informational only. What do I need to do to prevent it from being deleted? I am not a member of this band or an employee of this band. I edited some of the links. Is that enough? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.42.39.102 (talk • contribs).

The main issue here is whether the band is notable enough to be included in an encyclopedia. Please read WP:BAND to see the criteria. If Juke Kartel meets those criteria, you'll need to provide citations that demonstrate notability. These citations should be from reputable, reliable, third-party published sources. See WP:VERIFY for more info on that. Good luck, Satori Son 05:41, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Please excuse me if I break any wikipedia protocols or customs but this is my first ever wiki contribution. I've seen one two many wikipedia articles lost to in my opinion overzealous pruning and this is one where I know I could help out. Anyway the following urls will hopefully be enough information to keep this article. Here is the url to purchase tickets from ticket master for Juke Kartel's current American tour demonstrating the band is currently on an international tour. The lead singer, Toby Rand placed third in Rockstar supernova, unfortunately I cant link to the official CBS website since the information is encased in flash, but this information is repeated in the wikipedia supernova article along with a host of other sites throughout the net. I'm not too sure if gossip mags rate as an authoritative source, but here is in interview with toby published by who talking about toby's placement in the competition and also the band. This I believe satisfies item three and item nine from the "Criteria for musicians and ensembles" list. Cheers Santisaun 12:37, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Obvious Copyright Violation

The information in the 'Current Activities' section has clearly been directly copied and pasted from the band's biography. I nominate for a rewrite.

I don't really have the time or inclination to do a proper re-write, but I am going to try to prune a few of the obvious POV violations. 70.130.154.13 07:50, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
