[edit] Spoken (band)

Non-notable per WP:MUSIC. Also their non-notable record On Your Feet Nv8200p talk 23:56, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete under WP:MUSIC guidelines. --Arnzy ^{(whats up?)} 23:58, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Meets WP:MUSIC since Last Chance to Breathe charted at #20 on Billboard Magazines Top Christian Albums and at #29 on Billboards Top Heatseekers, according to Allmusic. --Joelmills 02:22, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - Just a little more info, band had two albums released with Tooth & Nail Records, which Allmusic refers to as "one of the premier independent Christian record labels". Tooth & Nail has a large roster of notable Christian bands, including MxPx, Mae, and Joy Electric. So they meet WP:MUSIC that way too. --Joelmills 01:05, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, barely passes WP:MUSIC, per Joelmills. As for the record, merge it into this article. --Coredesat 03:59, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• strong delete no sources other than the bands own myspace and website. not notable, vanity. Trm3 11:44, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep Meets WP:Music just. The record should also be merged into this article.--Auger Martel 11:40, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep this band is very notable within the Christian rock scene and tours with a nationally known band called Demon Hunter, popularity is increasing over time and has music video's shown on national satellite station TVU(TVUlive.com). WP:MUSIC guidelines need to be adapted for the unpredictable nature of band popularity on the Internet since bands now achieve popularity or large following online, and the use of wikipedia by such music player programs as AmaroK to look up band histories, etc. In this case the more obscure bands are the ones where the information is more necessary or interesting since those would be the bands more people would seek info on. -- Terrix 10:40, 23 June 2006 (EST)
