[edit] Banks & Shane

Was originally considered for speedy-deletion; however, Banks & Shane appears to be a legitimate band (I searched for them on Google). I feel this article's deletion should be discussed first. -- P.B. Pilhet 19:10, 28 August 2006 (UTC), Newpage Patrol

• Keep. Generates quite a bit of Google hits and seems like a fairly notable band. --  Nishkid64  ^Talk  19:31, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Comment Let's not get carried away here. Google gets 171 unique hits, not exactly an avalanche.

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Weak Keep - They seem to be somewhat of a local institution; I'm not sure how much they have gotten out of their local area, I can't verify the bit about touring (although it doesn't seem unreasonable.) Very mainstream, but we have a lot of death metal bands on Wikipedia that probably haven't played to 1/100th the audience that these folks have. --Brianyoumans 04:53, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep and cleanup Seems legit enough. Although low on the Google radar there is some third party coverage (although local) [1] or [2]. And there's at least a claim that they played at the democratic convention in 88 [3]. Pascal.Tesson 00:02, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
