[edit] Baphomets Throne

Baphomets Throne (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Appears not to meet any of the critera listed at Wikipedia:Notability (music) eg. hits on a national music chart, albums released on a major label, major music awards, regularly played on major radio networks or certified gold sales and the official website [1] has no information that the band meet these criteria. Previsously deleted in December 2007. Speedy deleted from es:, nl:, no:, sl:, sv: and da:. Thuresson (talk) 13:13, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

• Weakest conceivable keep. The article currently says that Rob Darken of Graveland was in the band at one point, which would make it pass criterion 6 of the criteria cited. That said, those criteria also point out that a redirect is often a better result here, and that may be the best result in this case too. I'm also having a bit of trouble verifying that Darken actually was in the band, although that may be due to my lack of Polish rather than anything else.

  • There is no information on the webpage supporting that Rob Darken ever was a member of the band. Various websites suggests that Rob Darken held a different capacity, such as playing keyboard at recording sessions. Thuresson (talk) 10:31, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Duly noted. Encyclopedia Metallum lists a couple of other members as being in various other bands, and I'm still trying to track down the notability of those bands. If I don't before the AfD ends, then I won't object if the article is deleted. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:24, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

• Delete per BigHaz, as, presumably, he has been unable to locate evidence of the notability of those bands. :) There's insufficient in the article as stands to verify notability. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:19, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
