[edit] Hectic watermelon

I don't think this band has asserted notability. Previously speedied, author contested on talk page of article so I'm bringing it here to make sure. Great band name, though. NawlinWiki 03:54, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Hectic Watermelon is a featured band & album on Abstract Logix (see http://www.abstractlogix.com/features_view.php?idno=92 )
Furthermore, the band has also worked with the prominent Jerry Goodman of The Mahavishnu Orchestra.
Before you delete, do some research on Abstract Logix & Jerry Goodman/Mahavishnu Orchesrta. --Pencilbox-production 03:56, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete: Does not appear to meet WP:MUSIC. Leuko 03:59, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

WP:MUSIC states: "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such." Wouldn't Jerry Goodman cover that area making them qualified for Wikipedia? --Pencilbox-production 04:03, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Their debut album "The Great American Road Trip" was also mastered & engineered by John Cuniberti who works mainly on Joe Satriani albums.

  • Delete. This appears to be nothing but a promo sheet for the band. There are no secondary references used and no references are given for what little is there. This material belongs on a MySpace page. This article is not a Wikipedia article. OfficeGirl 05:31, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I'm not sure that a producer connection (e.g. Jerry Goodman) has the same notability weight as an actual member of the band being notable in some other area. Fail to see any other way in which they fulfill WP:MUSIC. OhNoitsJamie Talk 05:51, 20 October 2006 (UTC)



I withdraw my argument. By request of the band Hectic Watermelon, please remove the Hectic Watermelon page.
