[edit] Decahedron (band)

Article fails WP:MUSIC (none of the notability criteria satisfied) and WP:V (MySpace is not considered a reliable source). Zunaid 12:29, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment: This article is filled with what would potentially be considered trivial and "unencyclopedic" detail. (It is not necessary to know the band's every move is it?). Were this to be removed the "encyclopedic" content would probably be speediable. I nominated this after about half an hour of digging through Wikipedia and Google. I have a concern that many (if not all) of the wikilinks in this article are to articles that themselves may be candidates for deletion. The entire structure of bands → artists who've played in them → other bands the artists have played in seems to be holding itself up by bootstrapping. I've chosen to nominate this one article to "test the waters" as it were (don't want to violate WP:POINT). However, if anyone else thinks it is justified, please include several of the other articles as well. Zunaid 12:29, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Delete. It's poorly written; contains unencyclopedic information and excessive wikification and vanity. Royboycrashfan 20:05, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

BTW, it's best to include your vote in the nomination. Royboycrashfan 20:07, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
