[edit] Music City Mystique
While this group has excelled within the competition of Winter Guard International, the group still does not meet notability standards. WGI is somewhat of a niche competition that is not as notable or well-known as the two major drum corps organizations. Moreover, this article is written an overly promotional tone straight out of a news release. Realkyhick 07:24, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as WP:COPYVIO of the G12 sort. Content lifted straight from the about page of the subject's website. --Aarktica 23:49, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Kurykh 23:52, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Why is consensus needed here? A previous AFD was closed with the rationale that policy trumps consensus (or lack thereof) for such matters. --Aarktica 12:38, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Response: I think there's a general reluctance to act on an article when there's only one vote (aside from the nom — me, in this case). That's understandable. I think the policy-trumps-consensus argument works when there's an obvious rationale for a speedy deletion. I don't know. Realkyhick 15:50, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Not that I meant to sound impatient, I just thought it was black-and-white. No matter, it will probably get the deep-six soon enough... --Aarktica 16:59, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
