[edit] The Faceless

The Faceless (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable band. About as notable as 20,000 or so other bands you can find on metal-archives.com We cannot merit all of them an entry. -RiverHockey (talk) 18:45, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per nom.   jj137 (Talk) 19:30, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

• Comment: Notable within the underground community. Evidence of commercial success. There are far less known bands who have pages on here. Deletion based on biased towards genre as a whole. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.84.97.104 (talk) 18:20, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

• Comment: Do not make false accusations, I am familiar with the genre (grew up as a big metal fan (yes I admit it)) so I know what merits a notable band. As for the far less notable bands, please tag them for deletion as well. -RiverHockey (talk) 20:07, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Agree with above. There is evidence of commercial success, as one can purchase their debut album at Best Buy stores across America. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.190.244.99 (talk) 18:26, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

You said "About as notable as 20,000 or so other bands you can find on metal-archives.com", biased towards a genre. Claiming to have been a big fan when growing up doesn't make you an authority now. And no, i will not tag any other bands, that totally contradicts the ethics of the scene i am part of. And so what if they're 'non notable' in your opinion? That's not grounds for deleting the article is it? If that was the way all underground bands on here were treated there wouldn't be any pages on here documenting some amazing bands. It's narrow minded music nazis like you that make websites like this crap. You go and listen to 20,00 other bands in the genre. Then perhaps your opinions will be valid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.153.69.93 (talk) 19:43, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

• Comment I am still quite knowledgeable about the current scene (or lack of it) and I am not biased, but aware of what constitutes a notable metal band. Please respect NPOV and refrain from insults or you will be banned. I don't care how "amazing" a said group is, this is an encyclopedia and only noteworthy articles shall be added. Otherwise wikipedia will lose even more respect as a research tool. -RiverHockey (talk) 00:34, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
