[edit] Matinée Club

Matinée Club (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Problematic notability. One single charted on the UK charts and they did play at festivals under their old name, but I'm not sure that that provides notability for the previous incarnation, and the new incarnation is signed to a non-notable label and has yet to produce anything other than downloads. Included in the AfD is their as-yet-unreleased "album", Modern Industry. Corvus cornix_talk 23:42, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep - if they had a single hit the charts in the UK, then they've satisfied criterion 2 of WP:MUSIC. -- Whpq (talk) 13:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - Per criterion 2 of WP:BAND and also these examples of independent coverage: [1], [2], [3]. Wisdom89 _{(T / ^C)} 13:52, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Question: If the band gets kept, should the album article be kept, too? Corvus cornix_talk 17:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

I'd say no only if there isn't any substantial coverage of it. Primary sources won't do. Wisdom89 _{(T / ^C)} 18:27, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep the article on the band, but delete the article on the album, per demonstration of decent sources for the one but not for the other. Anyone searching for "modern industry" is probably not looking for the album by Matinée Club.--Kubigula (talk) 01:36, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
