[edit] Nosferatu (band)

Nosferatu (band) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Notability of the band is not established in the article. theProject 21:01, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep, the article says the band did a "UK tour", that meets the notability requirements for music. They have a "Best Of" album on Amazon [1], that seems pretty notable to me. Very well-known goth band, I've heard of them and I'm in Australia. --Canley 22:50, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep qualifies under WP:MUSIC #4, #5, #11 (can't source this), possibly others. Koweja 23:05, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • The band meets WP:MUSIC with their UK tour and their releases, including a "Best of" CD available commercially. On the other hand, this article is one part copyvio, two parts POV editorial. It's clear that the group merits a Wikipedia article, but unless someone has the gonads to do a quick rewrite, this will not be the one, I'm afraid. Keep if it's rewritten to eliminate the POV; delete if not. B.Wind 23:14, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak delete The band meets WP:MUSIC if they did a national tour across the UK. However, this statement would need a source. —ShadowHalo 22:10, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Yeah, I've found their Best of CD at Tower Records myself. Almost all of their albums are signed onto Cleopatra Records (see here) which meets the Notability standard of having two or more albums on a notable indie label. -- Shadowolf 07:57, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
