[edit] Gauze

There is no entry in allmusic or artistdirect for a band called Gauze. This title should probably be reserved, anyway. RickK 22:48, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)

• There used to be an article about the material gauze, it was probably transikied and deleted or something. Anyway this band has 4 albums on amazon.co.jp [1], 2 of which are re-releases. Half of this album was recorded "live in Scotland" suggesting they have some international appeal, or a least a travel budget. Keep Kappa 23:01, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • If it had been transwikied, it would have been recorded in the transwiki log. There's no mention of it there. There's also no article in the transwiki namespace at Wiktionary (the most likely transwiki target), and since Wiktionary already has its own article on the word, and has had for well over a year, it wouldn't have been a transwiki to Wiktionary candidate anyway. Its deletion wasn't anything to do with transwikification. Uncle G 06:19, 2005 Jun 5 (UTC)
• Just as a comment, there's also a page called GAUZE, so if it is to stay, someone should add a dablink at the top. Sasquatch′↔Talk↔Contributions 01:43, Jun 5, 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Gauze is a notable hardcore band in japan and is renouned in the underground hardcore scene. I think this article has potential, and i vote against deletion. Marxxxx 20:51, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC).
  • Above users only edits have been on the Gauze article. JamesBurns 07:03, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. The amazon.co.jp link indicates notability. Martg76 22:29, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Gauze are one of the most well-known and long running japanese punk bands, the article needs to be cleaned up and probably renamed "gauze_(band)", but it should not be deleted. (Sorry about the edit on this comment, I forgot to sign in) Tombride 20:12, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Please delete, since gauze is mainly known for the surgical "cotton" material.
  • That's not a reason to delete, since the article can simply be moved to Gauze (band) if someone want to write something about the material. Kappa 20:40, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
