Dechederon is notable. per "Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country[1], reported in notable and verifiable sources." Has gone on tour across the united states with mike park on the plea for peace tour. As notified by the original entry. "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such." Which would be Joe Lally from Fugazi... and to a lesser extent, both Cinca and Hamacher were in Frodus which had multiple albums on a Major Indie Label (Tooth and Nail). Lovitt Records itself have had 23 different bands on its label over the past 10 years, including Denali, probably the best known of their bands (other than Frodus). I find it mildly insulting that this got used as a test case for the concept of Bootstrapping and the idea of "contains at least one member who was once part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable..."The former AfD kind of violated WP:POINT. Vanity? I'm just a fan of the band, who knows they exist. I have no relation to anyone but Joe Lally, who I know from Ian MacKaye met joe at a party. Joe doesn't even play in the band anymore. WP:Vanity states "However, a seeming vanity article with much information should not be put on the VfD page because it may end up being encyclopedic. Such articles should be managed by an administrator." I concede, I wasn't finished with the page, I got lost in other topics, it was left unfinished, which would have been the only reason for a VfD... not any of the aformentioned reasons. i'm glad that there is redundancy about on the wiki. because i found my old article on some other site copied word for word (as was my own writing), but not wikified[1]. so. just as a side note. i find my way around an AfD. Score. Everything was copied except for the introduction. Bummer on that though. --evesummernight
