[edit] Dreadnaut

Dreadnaut (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

I have looked at the band's claims of notability, and I am unimpressed (a self-published CD/EP making 2000 and 1000 sales, respectively; plus a number of downloads on their myspace page). Not found at allmusic.com, band's website has no Alexa rank. Delete. - Mike Rosoft 16:58, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, fails WP:MUSIC. Doctorfluffy 17:42, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, nominated 15 minutes after article creation.--uɐɔlnʌɟoʞǝɹɐs 17:51, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
    • How is that any reason not to delete the article? Please comment on the article's merits and my arguments for deletion, not on when it was nominated. (For the record, I have been watching Special:Newpages and deleting clearly inappropriate articles; instead of speedily deleting this one, I decided to bring it here.) - Mike Rosoft 18:13, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, fails WP:BAND --BlindEagletalk~contribs 18:55, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - I can't track much in the way of reliable sources for this band or its claims, and it doesn't appear to have made much of a dent in the WP:MUSIC guidelines. Maybe after a couple of albums and some touring it will come up to that level. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:25, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete and redirect to dreadnaught. 132.205.99.122 20:41, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. I don't think Mike Rosoft is playing inspector as he made good faith searches prior to deletion. Besides, the band really fails WP:BAND and WP:MUSIC. References in Youtube, Myspace and its own official website are not impressive and not independent coverage. I'm ok with the anon's redirect suggestion too.--Lenticel (talk) 23:59, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per not passing WP:BAND and the self-referential sourcing, and redirect per Mr. IP above. tomasz. 13:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
