[edit] Veracity

Does not meet Wikipedia standards for music notability]] Esprit15d 20:26, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Absolutely untrue! Veracity was one of the most noteworthy up-and-coming New England bands over the past five years. They were featured in The Stamford Advocate newspaper and various other publications. More importantly, its members have gone on to even bigger and more famous projects (see The Pizza War, currently being made into a movie!) KeithAllen 20:32, 16 December 2005

Veracity is awesome, here at fordham they are HUGE! - Michael Riordan, Fordham

I know this band and they meet the requirements!!! Wilson and Petrower were featured on MUG Radio, the national radio station for GarageBand and iCompositions. - KeithPetrower, www.icompositions.com

• Delete, per Music Notability and Music Guidelines. Tom Harrison (talk) 22:09, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

• Do not delete, because as stated above this band was featured on a national radio show AND members went on to bigger projects (a movie). For the record, the show was Lilichi's MUG Radio program. - Keith Petrower

• Delete according to WP:NMG. According to the article, the band played locally but didn't record an album, have any charting records or have a national tour. National radio program appears to be on internet for Garage bands. Capitalistroadster 23:21, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Do what you will, Wikipedia, and I'll live with it. But in my opinion your "Music notability standers" hinder the very goal of this great site. Just because a band didn't appear on MTV, does that mean they didn't exist and have a legacy and impact in the music world? I think that is a very naive way to judge artists and it detracts from what this site could offer to the music community. -Keith

• Delete per Capitalistroadster and due to repeated unsigned/unregistered votes. Stifle 01:18, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
