[edit] Matys Brothers

Unreferenced neglected article. Not in discogs, not in all music -- Perfecto 05:16, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. -- Perfecto 05:16, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. These guys were/are real. Had some hits. Appeared on American Bandstand in 1957. [1]. -- JJay 05:40, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per JJay. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:00, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
  • What were those hits, so at least I can put them into the article? Have they released albums? Do I just put The Matys Brothers are notable for appearing in an episode of American Bandstand in 1957? Or does WP:MUSIC only apply to the present, not the past? -- Perfecto 12:05, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• I believe the hits are already listed in the article. Also, a bandstand appearance is proof of notability, how else do you get on the show? Remember WP:Music is a guideline, not official policy. Finally, regarding your other questions, why don't you do some research and add to the article. -- JJay 20:51, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Notable group, even recorded several singles backed by Bill Haley and His Comets. I wasn't aware an article had been started on them. If time permits I'll expand (see my work on Bill Haley, James E. Myers, The Jodimars). However due to "real world" work priorities I won't be able to do anything until the new year. 23skidoo 12:26, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• I see someone has already expanded the article. I've made a couple of factual corrections. I don't have a date for when the Matys appeared on Bandstand, however. 23skidoo 21:35, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• 8/28/1957- see link above. -- JJay 21:42, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete Not nearly notable enough to be kept as a band, much less an article.—Preceding unsigned comment added by DethFromAbove (talk • contribs) 07:04, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, cleanup, expand. BD2412 T 19:15, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
