[edit] James and Tom Martin

James and Tom Martin (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Notable enough or not? You, the people, can decide... Chris 21:09, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep. According to the article, 40 of their songs have been covered by various rock acts. That statement needs a citation but it does assert notability. JamesMLane t c 04:55, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete - looks like an obvious self bio. Create a Wiki-name tag named after one of their songs, just added photo's and text to this article. Looks like a simplified version of their MySpace bio...! Rgds, - Trident13 19:45, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Am currently in the process of researching more songwriting credits to give more "notability" to this article.Will be adding to the page asap if this will help.

  • Keep This is certainly not a self-bio. I know the girl who created this article.

  • Strong Keep. The article is in need of improvement but they have written/co-written several songs which have charted for other people and therefore they definitely fulfil the notability criteria.Jud 15:10, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

*Strong Keep With help from another user and a few improvements/new additions to the article, I now feel it more than fulfills the notability criteria. --Purplepickledonions 18:23, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment. This article was the first one to be created by this user and she was unaware of the various conventions of Wikipedia. I am working with her to try to create a more encyclopedic entry which will include verifiable references.Jud 10:51, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Article nominated for deletion the day it's created? Give the article creator a chance for crying out loud! =) Above votes make it seem like the subjects pass the notability criteria, so give the newbie a chance to bring this article up to par. →EdGl 21:24, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I agree with EdGl. Though I do worry about COI per just how the page reads and this discussion, let's give it a chance to breathe. If there's a still problem in two weeks or a month, then we can nom it again. Rockstar (T/C) 08:57, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
