[edit] Do Not Speedy Delete

I've just added several 3rd-party references and citations. Give this article a bit more time to grow. Rosencomet 17:21, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I won't press for this article's deletion, now that there are at least a few references, even though the notability still seems questionable in my opinion. But I have to point out that this article's been around for eight months without any significant additions to its content, except for the list of places where these people have performed, which was added by an anonymous IP and probably doesn't belong in an encyclopedia article anyway. The "Give it time to grow" argument makes sense with an article that's just been created, but not here.

I will also point out that this article is orphaned, meaning that it's unlikely anyone will find it unless they deliberately search for it. (Which is probably why the article was able to hang around for eight months with no references at all.) Propaniac 18:42, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

All good points. I will see what I can do about it. If my efforts are insufficient after a while, and no one else adds material, guess it will go. Rosencomet 19:51, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm not going to make a bit row over notability, but this article definately has some issues. The discography section is misleading. Looks like only two are actually albums of any substance, and were done about ten years ago. Two more are Dan Berggren albums (hmm, looks like somebody took some classes with him at Fredonia) and should not be included on the list. More importantly, however, is the fact that this entire article reads like a poorly constructed resume, and violates the neutral standard. I'd hate to see this get deleted just because these people aren't big brand names, but at the same time, we can't have articles that read like adverts. Justinkrivers 09:42, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I haven't gotten to a text rewrite yet, since the main issues listed were lack of citations and links to other articles. It could probably use one. However, I disagree with the notion that an artist or group that plays on someone else's album shouldn't list that album as part of their discography; that's standard practice. I separated those out under a different heading so you won't think it misleading (although the star artist was clearly marked on each album). How old their albums are is certainly not an issue; we have articles about disbanded groups and dead artists all through Wikipedia, and they're not producing new material.
