• Weak keep, seems to marginally pass WP:RS (and thus criterion #1 of WP:MUSIC). Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps)))} 14:56, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, fails WP:BAND, WP:CRYSTAL, WP:SPAM. She gone. Realkyhick 18:50, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Weak Keep TenPoundHammer is correct. The band barely meets criteria number one of WP:MUSIC. Dallas Observer and Dallas Voice qualify as WP:RS, so two features should meet the significant coverage guideline. Although I'd be a lot happier if they were covered at least once outside of their local area.Horrorshowj 20:55, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep meets WP:MUSIC, barely, but meets. Carlossuarez46 05:03, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep I'm terribly naive at times ... but aren't attempts to improve an article suppose to comes before an effort to delete them? I also invite folks to read the good faith effort the new editor has done to assert notability in a heated discussion on the talk pages. We have another case of a newby editor learning how to write a good article - let's avoid hitting them with a virtual rolled-up newspaper for their effort and find ways to support instead.

• Delete With only two references (I don't dare call YouTube a source), it fails WP:RS. It also fails WP:BAND because, to my knowledge, I haven't heard about them in media, WP:CRYSTAL and is probably WP:SPAM because the references are from alternative, no-name "news" sites. 69.158.57.45 21:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

CommentI added YouTube as that's where the videos are. Dallas Voice and Dallas Observer are hardly "no-name 'news' sites." Also, just because you have heard of them hardly means they are any less notable just that you likely are not in the Dallas area and/or simply didn't see that media coverage.

• Keep - I can't see where it fails to be notable, verifiable, or any other requirement. SamBC 00:01, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - IMO, it does, in fact, pass WP:RS. The Dallas Voice and Observer do seem to be notable enough, although TPH is correct in his assertion that it's just barely. I also agree with Horrorshowj that coverage outside of the Dallas area would be great - to be truly notable, it seems that it would need at least a little coverage outside of the area - even from a "parent" group to the Voice and Observer, i.e. Village Voice Media or another paper from the National Gay Newspaper Guild. bwowen talk•contribs•review me please! 17:57, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
