[edit] Day of Contempt
Band page for which I can see no real claim to notability, and definitely no independant references. But since the page has been around for 2 years already, I'll give it a chance at AFD instead of just A7 Speedying it, in case I'm missing something. TexasAndroid 16:34, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Very Very Very Very Very Very As Borderline as possible Weak Keep Absolute borderline case. I may be wrong but appears to be just about notable due to releasing on epitaph. No more bongos 17:20, 7 November 2007 (UTC). I would say the article isn't too bad and frankly, it appears to be impossible to determine whether the subject passes WP:BAND. I suggest some cleanup is in order, sadly don't have time. Never heard this band btw, are they any good? No more bongos 04:46, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep, under notability guidelines:
- "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." - Epitaph Records and Good Life Recordings are both notable, having released many albums by notable artists
- "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable" - Vince Jukic, 28 Days Mr_pand 17:22, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

- Comment I'm so on the fence about this one that I'll refrain from !voting. Epitaph is certainly an important indie label but Good Life seems borderline (most, if not all, of their notable bands have been licensed from other labels). One member of the band (the drummer on their 1st EP) later played on one album by a notable band (28 Days); the other members' bands that have articles on Wikipedia appear to be of dubious notability. On both points the band sort of meets the letter of WP:MUSIC, but not really in spirit. I'm leaning towards delete but can't quite commit. Precious Roy 22:05, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete unless its claims to passing WP:BAND is sourced, either the releases on notable indie labels or the Jukic connection. Otherwise, we're taking their word for their notability - against WP:N, WP:RS, and WP:BAND. Carlossuarez46 00:31, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
