[edit] A Thousand Falling Skies

A band which existed for a while and doesn't now. They released a couple of EPs, one of which sold a couple of thousand copies. They used the money to tour a bit. And that's about it. There is nothing to say about this band other than what they say about themselves, as far as I can tell. Guy 15:07, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. They do meet one WP:MUSIC guideline, which is enough to warrant notability and an article on Wikipedia.:
  • Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such. (Kevin Boutot is in The Acacia Strain, Brendan Kane Duff is in Dry Kill Logic and was a member of 100 Demons [source]. --GVOLTT 17:04, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete No evidence of notability.Edison 20:48, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn, fails all but the most generous reading of WP:MUSIC. Eusebeus 15:20, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Yanksox

Comment, not a vote: Note that WP:MUSIC says, in the above-mentioned keep criterion, note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such. User:Zoe|(talk) 20:21, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

How would a redirect work when the various members have gone on to work with three different bands? Wavy G 16:01, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Notability isn't everything: here, there just isn't anything interesting to write. Since the band doesn't exist anymore, I'm unwilling to endorse what would become a permanent stub. Mangojuice^talk 20:33, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
