[edit] Oaksenham

Doesn't match WP:MUSIC. Reads like an advertisement.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Silvernich (talk • contribs)

• Weak delete, no sources for claims of notability (in second half of article). Awyong Jeffrey Mordecai Salleh 21:14, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep The article needs work, but lately I've been thinking about WP:BIAS a lot. I've never heard of any Armenian prog rock bands, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they're non-notable. I'd rather err on the side of including too many "non-western" bands than revert vandalism on yet another page devoted to an American pro-wrestler. Dina 22:49, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
• Note The country from where the band originated doesn't really matter, it's just the fact that they have not done anything particularily notable. It seems interesting, but the article needs work. Hispanic! At the disco 16:02, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Comment I guess my point is that the Armenian language doesn't use the western alphabet, Armenia has, as a country, a substanially smaller portion of internet users (both as a percentage of its population and real figures), than a country such as the United States [[1]] and as a result, determining the notability of this band using google is misleading. They could be the most famous Armenian prog rock band ever and I'd have no idea. So non-notability can't be established. That's all I'm trying to say when I reference WP:BIAS Dina 20:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

• Keep You'd better visit them and listen to their music, read articles about them on the net and then help with editing User: Arman Padaryan 00:47, 1 September 2006 (CET)

• Keep As per Dina. In this case we have no positive reason to doubt notability. I've never heard of them, but then I wouldn't expect to. Lots of people haven't heard of the Ramones or Joy Division either. BTLizard
