[edit] Kind of Pluto
Not-quite-notable band, fails WP:BAND, unknown to allmusic.com. Prod removed by author without comment. Delete --Huon 09:48, 11 July 2006 (UTC)\\
- The article was improved quite a lot since my nomination. Some references would be nice, but it does seem to satisfy WP:BAND. Thus, I change my opinion to keep. --Huon 20:00, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- hey sorry bout removing that thing, I don't want this article deleted cause the band needs some sort of regonition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dead Chook (talk • contribs) 09:54, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Removing "proposed deletion" tags is in no way prohibited (unlike full AfD tags); it just contests the deletion. That's why I brought it here, so we may discuss the merits of the article. The main problem is that usually Wikipedia reserves articles only for topics that already have some sort of recognition. --Huon 10:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Well in the criteria thats needed for a band to be on wikipedia in that link above, this band meets these criteria to my knowledge: a national your of a large country, i bleieve Australia is a large country. Also one of the members, Steven Gates, is part of a notibal band caled tripod who have a wikipedia article. Has been placed in rotation on a nationly radio station triple J, the songs aren't placed as often anymore but its still there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dead Chook (talk • contribs) 10:15, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per Dead Chook's statement that "this band needs some sort of recognition". Do feel free come back once they have it. Just zis Guy you know? 10:22, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment If it meets the criteria whats the problem? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dead Chook (talk • contribs) 10:35, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Passes WP:BAND as discussed above, particularly through one member going on to join Tripod (band). Tevildo 13:01, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep. Having a band member who is also in a notable act (Tripod (band)) seems just about enough reason to keep, but article needs wikifying. Bondegezou 16:12, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep Per reasons above, plus withdrawn nom. PT (s-s-s-s) 20:47, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Delete- the comments by Dead Chook at the top of these comments suggest to me that he is involved in the band, and this is therefore a vanity article. Also as per Just Zis Guy's comments above - WP should not be used for this purpose. Tivedshambo (talk) 23:44, 11 July 2006 (UTC)- Weak keep Seems to barely meet WP:MUSIC. --Joelmills 00:03, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment It may have appeared that I was involved with the band, im not, also due to i haven't met them before, and live in a different city. But that point can't really be prooven or disprooven.Dead Chook 09:50, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep Having read WP:BAND, and Dead Chook's comment above, I've changed my mind and prepared to give this article the benefit of the doubt. Tivedshambo (talk) 17:48, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
