Procedural nomination. This article has been created and speedy-deleted several times, but the band seems to have gained notability over the course of time, as noted by several citations from reliable sources. The article was salted after I tagged it for speedy-deletion, but the latest author asked for a review process, so I asked an admin to unsalt the page so that a formal AfD could take place (though it was speedied again before I could start the process). I have no position on this article; it is a procedural nomination only. Realkyhick 06:58, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 11:52, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

• Sorry about that, Chief. Realkyhick 17:14, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

• Delete All the references under Hollywood_undead#Notable_Media_Attention are articles about the band's label MySpace Records in which the band themselves are given only a brief mention as being the first to sign to that label. There seems to be nothing in the article to satisify WP:MUSIC CIreland 17:23, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete I think the basic consensus shown in the last three or four AFDs was to at least wait until they had released an album. I don't think they have yet. So...there you go. Bartleby 21:21, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
• comment I thought the "upcoming release" part was crystal ball, until I saw the line-up section "Upcoming (possible) Members", you've got to be kidding me. Pete.Hurd 22:03, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete They still haven't done anything to meet WP:BAND. They have two self-produced CDs, according to GraceNote, and one song on a compilation from "Myspace Records", which hasn't released much else. They get attention because, for a while, they had an ad on every page of Myspace. Their Myspace page claims they're going to release an album Real Soon Now. When and if they do, we can reconsider this. --John Nagle 05:05, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete A band that's signed even by a major label but doesn't put anything out or don't tour still fails WP:MUSIC, so just because it's the first to be signed by myspace records, it's no big deal. High on promise, but nothing since they signed. Agree with above: all the articles are about myspace records, and are trivial mentions of the band, so fails WP:N. Ohconfucius 09:19, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
• Keep I don't see the point in deleting an article that is notable enough to have page about them on Fuse TV. I don't understand the need to delete articles that are obviously in question, if anything the AfD should hold off until after the release of thier CD otherwise this article will be made again and again and again and if it is protected from recreation it will take a deletion review to get the article back once its gone, so whats the point in making it 20 times harder.--Joebengo 14:19, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
