  • Keep - Article needs more references but the subject is notable, no need to delete. Gouranga(UK) (talk) 11:22, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep — Notable band with multiple releases on Equal Vision and Lost & Found. I am finding it hard to assume good faith when, first noting this user opened AFDs on two plainly notable Krishnacore bands, I check the editor's contribs to find what seems to be an anti-Krishna agenda. Regardless, the group is notable and meets WP:MUSIC. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 15:31, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Comment My "agenda," as you put it, is to have notoble articles with reliable sources. If you need an exapmle of a Krishna music project that is notable please see Radha Krsna Temple. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 15:58, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Response Above you cite WP:Music. Which "Criteria for musicians and ensembles" are you suggesting for notability? And, where are the reliable sources to back it up? These items are missing. Thanks.Ism schism (talk) 16:10, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep This page should remain as this is definitely a notable, yet underground, band. I feel they fulfill several of the "criteria for musicians and ensembles" in WP:Music. First, as stated above, they have released several albums on well-known independent labels (criteria #5). Secondly, they are the subject of two separate documentary films (criteria #1). Thirdly, the guitarist was a member of four other well-known underground bands, Inside Out, Burn, Shelter and Beyond (criteria #6). Uncle Cheech (talk) 16:52, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Uncle Cheech, when you created this page, where you using any reliable sources for the information placed in the article? Are you aware of any since you created the page? If you can provide these sources, it would be helpful for this discussion. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 16:57, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Absolutely. I just added several reference links on the 108 page. They range from allmusic.com to a transcription of a Spin Magazine article from 1995. Thanks! Uncle Cheech (talk) 17:36, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Uncle Cheech! Ism schism (talk) 18:29, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - seems to pretty easily meet notability. matt91486 (talk) 18:22, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Change vote to Keep. Information provided in recent edits to article by Uncle Cheech has established notability verified through reliable sources. Ism schism (talk) 18:29, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep per the information cited by Uncle Cheech, I do believe that this satisfies WP:MUSIC guidelines. RFerreira (talk) 18:44, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
