The result was Keep. I'm closing the AfD since the nominator has changed his vote to keep, and keep is obviously the consensus anyway. Non-admin closure. Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 03:49, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Way too short, not much band information, less than 10 words, and the page seems not have no one contributing to it to make it grow into a real encyclopedic or informative article.Migospia †♥ 10:14, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment Those aren't actually reasons for deletion. Nick mallory 10:53, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Expanded on reasoning then--Migospia †♥ 11:07, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, notability not suggested, no refs, no info about albums or concerts or whatever. What is this article good for? Pavel Vozenilek 11:36, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Only a stub here because of language, I'd say. They pass WP:MUSIC easily; 20 albums, tours of North and South America [1] [2] and a big article at es-wiki [3]. Wonder if someone would like to translate that article into English to expand this stub? EliminatorJR Talk 11:45, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. The band's had over 20 albums, I would say that alone makes them at least a little bit notable. Granted, All Music Guide only lists one of said albums, but I've found that quite often, All Music Guide falls woefully short of the "All" part of its name...

  • Keep and expand. AMG is not strong on world music. Even albums that have sold over a million copies in other countries may not be found on AMG if they weren't marketed in the English-speaking world. --Charlene 19:12, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. The es-wiki page has some serious POV issues, so translating this may take longer than I thought. Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 20:14, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand- band is very notable in the Mexican scene, so sources will be found. There might be delays as translation happens, but this is a needed addition to Wikipedia. Nominator is encouraged to use appropiate tags to expand article rather than AfD.--Cerejota 23:19, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand- Since people are willing to expand this article, my answer changes--Migospia †♥ 00:42, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
