  • Strong Delete not notable artist, does not fit any of the criteria under WP:music Article is strictly biographical and additionally does not cite valid sources Cleanuprockstar 01:19, 18 April 2007 (UTC)— Cleanuprockstar (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. .
  • Delete Non-notable band, vanity page. - BierHerr 02:03, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, Not just not notable, but no assertion of notability. That coupled with no sources...delete. GoodnightmushTalk 02:44, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep. Three full-length albums and an EP on a notable label are more than adequate to satisfy WP:MUSIC. Heather 18:08, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep as per Ergot's notes; 'weak' because I'd like to see some media references and other sources to go with the notable label and album list, though. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:09, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep release by a notable label tends to imply notability to me, and Metropolis is as important as they get in Industrial type music. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 21:47, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment A search of google and similar search engines does not turn up any reliable sources. Article violates WP:V, WP:NOR Metropolis records appears to be non-notable —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cleanuprockstar (talk • contribs) — Cleanuprockstar (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. .
  • Strong Keep. Goggle produces 95,200 hits for Terrorfakt ranging from reviews, t-shirt sales, sales venues, etc. Metropolis is indeed the leading industrial label and represents almost 130 artists and distributes for about 80 labels (from their website: http://www.metropolis-records.com/artists/ . Artists include Apoptygma Berzerk, Assemblage 23, Combichrist, Covenant, Front Line Assembly, KMFDM, Mindless Self Indulgence, Velvet Acid Christ, VNV Nation, Wumpscut) . Surely the entry can and perhaps should be expanded but even more surely it should be kept. It contains useful information for those like me who are researching the band (I own no disks of theirs yet). And the entry compares well with a number of other similar entries for bands. Disparaging remarks about the band or Metropolis are not credible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zen Mercury (talk • contribs)
  • Keep band is on a well-known, notable label (one of the oldest and largest in industrial music, if not the oldest and largest); has at least three albums out when WP:BAND only requires two. National Airport 23:14, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
