Wikipedia:Notability (music) Criteria C4 states "Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country, reported in reliable sources." First, the article does not cite a reliable source for the tours, and second, the international tour criteria is disputed. Cagey Millipede (talk) 20:14, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete Article has been around for almost 2 years and no one has produced sources, which indicate they probably don't exist. Pharmboy (talk) 21:01, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep - the article meets WP:MUSIC#C4. While that stays on the main WP:MUSIC page, this article remains notable. They've also released two albums. Here's a source for the tours, as requested by nom and Pharmboy. Dihydrogen Monoxide (party) 03:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment You cannot judge a book by its cover, but the link to synthesis.net does not project an image of reliability (not that I doubt Thug Murder played the show). Also, the article mentions that they played in a show, which seems different than going on tour. Could you provide a quote that says this was part of a tour? Thanks.

  • Keep As nominator mentioned, they have had an international tour. The fact that some people aren't happy with the way the guideline is worded is irrelevant. I've added some sources. It's a borderline case, but I say they're just notable enough. faithless (speak) 21:32, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep per Faithlessthewonderboy. And you deserve some recognition for your work sir. CM (talk) 21:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
