[edit] Revolution Music

See first AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Revolution music canada

This article was created in October 2006 and incorrectly tagged as reposted AfD content, for which I deleted it. It has since been pointed out that the article was not a direct repost of the deleted content, so I have recreated it.

However, I do believe that it fails Wikiepdia's notability rules. It does not verify any of its claims of notability, nor does it provide any external sources which suggest that it has had the impact it claims.

I'm not aware of any precedent about record labels - they're not mentioned at WP:MUSIC - and I thought that the best thing to do now would be to put this to a community discussion.Robdurbar 08:09, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

• Comment A few more details to try and stimulate discussion. The company's website is here. They appear to have released a few compilation albums and they have a show on a local radio station... but there's no evidence that these have had any impact, nor that the albums have been released outside of their local area. --Robdurbar 09:14, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete—while WP:MUSIC doesn't directly suggest any criteria for notability of labels, it does discuss what constitutes a "more important indie label", and this certainly doesn't meet that definition. If a label isn't important enough to justify keeping a band, I don't think it's important enough to justify keeping itself. Xtifr _tälk 10:47, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - I am not sure that WP:MUSIC is the best set of criteria to judge a record label, tho I like Xtifr's spin on it. I think WP:CORP is the best criteria to judge against. The article provides no sources, reliable or not. In review the company's web page, they have a "news" section, but all it seems to be is listing of the gigs (and cancellations there of) for their acts.--Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 02:23, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
