[edit] Pretty Flowers

Band doesn't meet WP:MUSIC. 165.189.91.148 20:38, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

• Keep Article should remain. Meets the following requirements:

3 Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country*. 6 Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise extremely notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such.

• • Comment: any verifiable sources to back up those claims? The band's own website isn't a sufficiently credible reference to meet WP:V. 165.189.91.148 21:52, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

• • • Keep “The claims” as you put them, are not astronomical, and I don’t know why you are so pro-deletion. That being said, the band’s website does note that they’ve played cities across North America, and some of their old flyers posted include various cities. You can also follow this link to find all of the band’s tour dates: http://www.sonicbids.com/prettyflowers. Just go to “calendar” and then “past dates.”

I could find no information on the band the Clits or Baba Yaga online, but anyone who wishes can contact the band members directly: milskaysa@yahoo.com and me@randyhamilton.com or their label rep: bananaseatrecords@gmail.com. I will do more research on late 80's/early 90’s UK and Russian bands and see what I come up with. 70.23.237.238 00:36, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

• • • • Comment:Everything in Wikipedia must be verifiable. Please read WP:V and take it to heart. 66.191.124.236 01:45, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

• • • • • Keep: Page has been edited. Plus: WP:MUSIC: 3. Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country*

http://www.sonicbids.com/prettyflowers. Go to “calendar” and then “past dates.” Verifies that Pretty Flowers has toured the U.S. and Canada. 70.23.181.202 02:44, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

• delete NN/Vanity, WP:MUSIC is a heuristic for notability. This article has the purpose of promoting the band, rather than explaining, as an encyclopedic would do, what it is that is historically notable about this band. This band is not a specific exemplar of a notable phenomenon. Pete.Hurd 22:44, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep non-notability not proven.  Grue  12:11, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
