[edit] NorthPoint

*Speedy Delete, no notability asserted. GrandmasterkaImage:Blend Flag.jpgImpart wisdom 07:26, 18 March 2006 (UTC) Not true anymore. No vote. GrandmasterkaImage:Blend Flag.jpgImpart wisdom 07:28, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Please retain, added notability. Acrouch 08:10, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Question - Who released their albums? Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 12:05, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete a search on Last.fm yields virtually no results for this band, meaning few listeners for their "nationally released album". Wickethewok 08:58, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the helpful comments. The albums (self-titled, and just-released "Wildwood Trail" which is available on cdbaby.com next week) are independent, recorded and produced in Portland OR. In terms of search results, the band is listed on cdbaby.com, pdxbands.com, rockband.com, and magic bus (mbus.com). The CD "Wildwood Trail" is actually being solid internationally, in Asia, Europe, and the US. Acrouch 20:08, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment - Imo, being on rockband.com and those other sites (a search on cdbaby.com yielded no results btw), does not mean notability. My vote is still for delete for nn band and vanity. Wickethewok 23:54, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Notable --Masssiveego 08:27, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, vanity article; being mentioned by one local publication is not enough to meet notability criteria. Sorry! Where (talk) Clarify T1-reduce wikiStrife 00:32, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Fail to meet criteria for notable band. Nigelthefish 14:59, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
