[edit] Oppression51

Oppression51 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Non-notable, no sources. Beach drifter (talk) 11:11, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete as non-notable, probably even when sourced. tomasz. 11:11, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - per nom. --Komrade Kiev (talk) 12:49, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  • DO NOT DELETE notability is present. Just because the following people don't know who oppression51 is doesn't make them not notable. Sources are being gathered to prove notability. Is it required that oppression51 is known world wide? Because I can show you many articles on Wikipedia that are of local/state wide notability and still remain; such as high school, etc. Teajay1013 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 14:13, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Comment. See here for what is generally required for a subject to class as notable: it's not to do with whether we've heard of it. As far as i can see, the article as it stands doesn't even say how the group might be notable by these criteria, never mind showing it with reliable sources. tomasz. 14:30, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

oppression51 is not as popular as David Hyde Pierce but one cannot argue from the content of this article that it is an established comedy group, and possibly more humorous than Mr. Pierce--(Having a certain ambiguous amount of 3rd party sources aside). College radio station WGLZ has been cited as various members of oppression51 appear on a radio show there from time to time. Without comparing to other articles that have much fewer information than this one, what is the minimum amount of sources needed for this one to remain afloat? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.50.130.228 (talk) 00:28, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete - Fails WP:NOTE and WP:BIO for comedic entertainers. Sources are trivial - myspace, personal website, and a college radio station. No evidence of second or third party coverage. Wisdom89 (T / C) 17:18, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
