[edit] The Side Effects

This article contains no valuable information and obviously is not impartial judging by this sentence: "The Side Effects was a groovy band that was awesome." WNTTM 21:18, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

• Incomplete nomination listed now. - Liberatore(T) 21:00, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Most of the major bands from Athens around the time R.E.M. came out (Love Tractor, Pylon, The B-52s) are fairly notable by association. Beyond that, I can tell you that they were at least mentioned, if not featured, in the documentary Athens, GA: Inside Out, and get some mention in books such as It Crawled From the South by Marcus Gray and R.E.M.: Fiction by David Buckley. As a huge R.E.M. fan, this band leapt right out at me when I saw the page. It needs work, and I'll be glad to work on it sometime tonight or later this weekend if I get a shot, but nobility isn't in question here. --badlydrawnjeff talk 22:21, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
  • I've rewritten this with a bunch of different sources, it hopefully meets muster. --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:50, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per badlydrawnjeff Computerjoe's talk 18:52, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

• Keep per above Parsssseltongue 20:17, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per badlydrawnjeff, deletion is not a substitution for removing NPOV. It seems Jeff did a good job. Yanksox ^(talk) 20:18, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Notability established by bdjeff, even though the other bands he mentioned are notable on their own, not by jumping on the R.E.M. bandwagon. trialsanderrors 23:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
