Hounds Tooth (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Spammy article on a non-notable singer; the band Hounds Tooth has no page doesn't seem notable either. This page is also composed mostly of review quotes and external links. Only claim of notability is an award from Shepherd Express, which I doubt is enough for WP:MUSIC. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 18:26, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. The singer won an award from the third largest newspaper in the state of Wisconsin, and her band was described as being at the center of the Milwaukee-area blues scene. Mvuijlst (talk) 18:49, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Comment In that case, I would support moving this page to a page on the band, with a section on the lead singer if the band's notability can be asserted through sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 19:01, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Agree. Mvuijlst (talk) 19:08, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
• Created a stub for Hounds Tooth. Redirect Jamie Brace to there for now? Mvuijlst (talk) 19:30, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. The band doesn't have even a credits/discography on AllMusic, let alone a biography, which makes me doubt its ability to pass WP:MUSIC. The award is local, and much as I love the Shepherd Express, it's a free weekly in a city noted more for its rare breakouts than a nationally-recognized music scene. --Dhartung | Talk 19:46, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - possible redirect to Hounds Tooth. Catchpole (talk) 20:33, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Whoops, didn't catch that. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 21:41, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Comment It wasn't there (see above). There's nothing in there asserting WP:MUSIC passage, either. --Dhartung | Talk 22:05, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete The band might be notable enough, but the individual members are not. Beeblbrox (talk) 20:35, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
• Comment Given the near-total lack of sources here, I endorse the deletion of the newly created Hounds Tooth stub. I would have redirected if I could have found any sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 22:47, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete both per Dhartung, sorry. tomasz. 11:02, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Redirect As described above. Keep and improve the Hounds Tooth stub in good faith until editors have a little more time to raise it up to WP:MUSIC. SingCal 15:54, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Both Doesn't come close to passing WP:BAND. faithless (^speak) 22:35, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
• Redirect to Hounds Tooth and focus on improving that article first. --clpo13_(talk) 06:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
