Hey, I just wanted to let you know that it's nothing personal against you or your band, but in order for a band to have a Wikipedia article, they need to be considered notable (see WP:BAND). I was actually in a local band [1] that got signed to a German record label (World IN Sound) and we put out an album, but when one of my former bandmates tried to make a Wikipedia article, it got deleted. Even if you are signed and have recorded albums, bands just aren't considered to be notable enough until there are third party sources talking about them. Give your band a few years and maybe you'll be able to have one; Sweden has produced many good bands in the past. I feel like a tourist (talk) 23:35, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
