[edit] F.Y.P

Fails WP:BAND. Esprit15d (talk ¤ contribs) 19:03, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Per Allmusic entry: [1]. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 20:07, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
• STRONG KEEP Does meet WP:BAND. While still a band, during its ten year span the band had toured Europe several times, Japan once, and U.S. uncountable amount of times. Band has released two or more albums on important indie label (see discography). Band has been featured in multiple non-trivial published works in reliable and reputable music magazines such as Maximumrocknroll and Flipside. See copy of very last interview in 2000 here: Mrr Cover: (http://www.flickr.com/photos/zargari/213580819/in/set-72057594118632117/), Page 1 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/zargari/213580719/in/set-72057594118632117/), Page 2 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/zargari/213580626/in/set-72057594118632117/), Page 3 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/zargari/213580546/in/set-72057594118632117/).

• Keep. How does it "fail WP:BAND"? Can you explain more precisely? AQu01rius (User | Talk | Websites)  21:37, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - Are you ****ing kidding me?!?! PT ^(s-s-s-s) 22:51, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
• Comment The information that demonstrates that it passes WP:BAND needs to be included in the article. Burden of proof is on the article to justify its existence. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 23:03, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
  • It's in there. PT ^(s-s-s-s) 23:09, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Yes. With the exception of (debatable) google tests, it is all indeed in there. Messwemade 00:13, 10 October 2006 (UTC)'
    • The article doesn't mention anything about media coverage or specific tours the way this afd does. The info should be in there, not here. Without it, it just comes off as really vague and unsupported. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 00:46, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Added paragraph regarding tours and media coverage. large discography was already a part of article. KeepMesswemade 00:54, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Tell you what, then... since it's in front of you now, why don't YOU put it in the article in the way that's going to make YOU happy. PT ^(s-s-s-s) 00:50, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Passes WP:MUSIC easily - Recess records has multiple signings, has been around since 1990 (and apparently has moved out of the bedroom it started in into proper premises in '95), FYP then became 'Toys That Kill', which themselves seem to have passed WP:MUSIC. It's all very 'indie', but seems to have grown into something notable and verifiable. QuagmireDog 02:05, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Can we just get an admin to speedy keep this per WP:SNOW? Though it really should be WP:DUH!. PT ^(s-s-s-s) 17:39, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
• Edited Night Gyr's revisions on article and added info for citation on discussion page. Ready for keep. (Well said Quagmire). Messwemade 18:17, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Night Gyr removed my See Talk Page and replaced it with Citation needed.....BUT: I did the citation as a "See Talk page" because the citation is in print form and the links on the talk page link to a scanned version on Flickr. There is not an online version of the interview from the year 2000. Ammended the article to reference exact issue for last interview done with band. Messwemade 17:42, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
