[edit] Tacto Latino

Tacto Latino (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

A single appearance at Glastonbury does not rise to the level of notability expected of WP:MUSIC. No other assertion of notability. Search results from reliable sources only mention the band as part of the day's lineup. DarkAudit 13:26, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

  • This appears to me to be advertising copy for the band. Congrats on the festival appearance, but you haven't earned a place in Wikipedia yet. Delete. Chromaticity 14:26, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
    • I also suggest in passing that Glastonbury Festival line-ups is encouraging the creation of these non-notable band articles, and is unencyclopedic. Does Wikipedia really need to archive in perpetuity the lineups at regional music festivals, especially when so many of the bands that perform at these are ultimately non-notable?

    • I would suggest that if the bands do not meet the standards outlined in WP:MUSIC outside of the one Glastonbury appearance, then no. DarkAudit 15:13, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Fair enough if it doesn't meet your standards, however, one strength I've always admired in Wikipedia is its detail. If a Wikipedia user desired to research Glastonbury, one of the world's most famous music festivals, and to carry out that research in detail, he or she would trust Wikipedia to provide such detail. Due to this, I don't see what problem there should be in listing every band that has played or will be playing at Glastonbury, including those who aren't 'notable'. And to further this research, clicking on as many of these bands as possible should bring up detail specifically about that band. Tacto Latino, as well as many other 'unnotable' bands on the list, are listed on the official Glastonbury website as well as several other major music websites. I reject the accusation that I am using the page to advertise the band. As a matter of fact, I don't enjoy playing in the band that much and we're not making any money out of it and I doubt I shall be playing with them again. Do as you wish, although as all the information is correct and is referred to by trusted sources, I don't see the problem here. /User:samhickssamhicks
