  • Delete as per nomimation. scope_creep 00:58, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, D-Trash is notable within the electronic music community. Phoeron 01:06, 10 November 2006 (UTC) — Phoeron (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Delete - D-Trash is NOT notable within the electronic music community.Nor are you. This article fails WP:MUSIC and WP:V --Shrieking Harpy......Talk|Count 01:10, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Also for deletion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Phoeron.--Húsönd 04:02, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep. I'm not an expert in electronica, but it seems like this label has enough notability to be worth saving. Article could use more work, though. Chubbles1212 04:15, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Elaragirl. Resolute 05:25, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete No demonstration of notability, only references are the homepage and a blog. Most of the releases are CDr which means homemade. I will change my vote if I see evidence of notoriety. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 05:25, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Canadian electronica isn't my field but the distro page at DHR quotes reviews of their full-scale releases in Kerrang and Terrorizer, very much two of the leading publications in the field and ones based outside their native Canada at that. It seems they pass WP:MUSIC by dint of either has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network or has been the subject of a half hour or longer broadcast on a national radio network as a Google search proves the assertion in the article regarding their regular appearances on the Brave New Waves programme to be true, as an example, see here. So, Keep it is, I guess. Ac@osr 10:26, 10 November 2006 (UTC) (sorry, small edit required, misspelt link Ac@osr 10:27, 10 November 2006 (UTC))
  • D-Trash Records is one of the main, if not the only labels these days releasing Digital Hardcore music to date and has been an integral part of that genre of music's history, since 1998, almost 10 years now. D-TRASH has received many reviews in major publications, either local Canadian publications like Chart Magazine (circulation in the ten thousands), Exclaim Magazine (circulation in the hundreds of thousands, where D-Trash Records has received a full page article on their history in 2002), but also international publications like KERRANG, INDUSTRIAL NATION, SIDE-LINE, Rock Sound. Our music is registered within the archives of the Canadian National Library and also has received regular airplay on the nationwide Canadian Broadcasting Corporation CBC with Schizoid being requested to perform multiple hour-long DJ sets exclusively for the program. Schizoid of D-Trash Records is clearly listed on All Music Guide, a reference point for many music information queries. D-Trash Records's CDs are listed for sale on Itunes international digital music store, something very hard to attain for supposed 'unnotables', as well as Amazon.com. D-Trash Records has a North American wide distribution deal with Caroline Records meaning that you can go into any HMV anywhere in North America and buy a CD. Delete this entry if you will, but I think you should delete ABSOLUTELY EVERY SINGLE artist and label page having anything to do with breakcore or the digital hardcore genre if you're going to delete this entry. There are far more labels and artists who are 'unknowns' and 'unnotable' than this entry. This wikipedia entry is by no means a vanity entry meant for empty self-congratulation. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Schizoid666 (talk • contribs) 12:32, 10 November 2006.
  • Delete unless notability established; the article currently offers no evidence of notability. The previous recommendation claims notability: if there is such evidence, please add it to the article, and if it checks out I'd support a keep. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:30, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep smaller label with an extensive release history. Distributed by the label that distributed acts like Atari Teenage Riot. Fits criteria 7, 11 of WP:MUSIC and I would argue as a small label with nearly 100 releases that they pass criteria 4 as well.  ALKIVAR™ ☢ 01:33, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
