Unsourced band article. Peter O. (Talk) 16:41, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Withdrawn. The article can be kept. Peter O. (Talk) 23:06, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, no assertion of meeting WP:MUSIC. (Though there are sources listed in the infobox. (Is it just me, or do band articles with links to myspace pages never, ever meet WP:MUSIC?)) —Cryptic 17:25, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Fails to assert notability. scope_creep 17:41, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep The label they are on released early albums by Idlewild regardless of that, I'd say delete. Missvain 17:54, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Then I suggest that you cite sources in order to demonstrate that the WP:MUSIC criteria are satisfied by this band. (What the band says about itself on its web site is not acceptable, note. Remember the lesson of Jamie Kane.) That is what will change editors' minds. Uncle G 19:33, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep These guys got coverage in the music press, including NME, and radio support from the usual suspects (Peel, Lamacq) they could have been the next Mogwai. Catchpole 19:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

*Weak keep, per Catchpole and Dianogah. If the article can be better sourced, make that a strong keep. --Guinnog 20:07, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Strong keep per the edits I have made to the article. --Guinnog 20:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Page has now been filled with sources and much more content Dianogah 21:16, 16 November 2006 (UTC)}
  • Weak keep; they pass WP:MUSIC, but remember that that isn't everything. They are still barely notable. --Robdurbar 13:02, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
