The result was Delete—This group might have a significant fan following, but they appear to be part of an amateur musical movement that, as of yet, has not led them to recognition outside of their fan base and that of the dōjin-related music genre. No prejudice for re-creation with reliable sources that reflect broader recognition (whether those sources are in Japanese, English or some other language). --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:11, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Non-notable Japanese band. Seeing some proliferation of associated articles about individual albums, they should be considered for deletion as well based on the same. Avruch^Talk 22:45, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

They're one of the most prolific doujin bands out there, who have actually released a few actual game soundtracks as well. Why are they not notable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.225.67.65 (talk) 15:40, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Delete As per nom. Nothing really shows notability in the article.Hammer1980·^talk 23:01, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
• Weak Delete From what I've heard, they're more notable than this article does justice to. Having said that, the article does not particularly seem to assert that notability, if indeed it exists, and I can't really expand the article from Japanese sources, so I have to vote delete on this one. If some of the stuff in the lead/major part of the article were expanded, it might be notable, but I can't tell if that's possible currently, let alone do it with my current knowledge of Japanese (ie. zilch). Would be willing to reconsider if notability is expanded upon. Cheers, CP 05:32, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Just want to point out the Japanese Wiki has less information, yet its not opted for deletion >.> Also I believe it has valuable information for fans of the Doujin Music scene, as it does list all released albums —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.180.97.245 (talk) 16:13, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
