• Delete as not notable. This was speedy deleted by an admin and then restored by an admin earlier today. IMO, this should have been speedy as notability is not determined. Bollar 02:42, July 26, 2005 (UTC)
  • Bollar, the criteria for speedy deletion say nothing about notability. You may wish to attempt to have this changed. However, it will be an uphill battle, as lack of notability isn't even mentioned as a factor that may lead to deletion via VfD. Please see Importance. -- Hoary 03:13, July 26, 2005 (UTC)
  • While we're on the topic, there is a criterion, A7, that refers to notability, but it applies only to "real people". There is a continuing discussion at Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Proposal/3-C about the bands side of things. -Splash 04:17, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete because it doesn't satisfy WP:MUSIC. -- Hoary 03:13, July 26, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete no evidence of notability as per WP:MUSIC. Capitalistroadster 03:16, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable. Unfortunately, the attempt to place band vanity articles into the speedy category failed, so this is the right place for this article. I will also respectfully disagree with you, Hoary. Article criterion #7 says "(a)n article about a real person that does not assert that person's importance or significance" is speediable. That pretty much has to do with notability. Denni☯ 03:19, 2005 July 26 (UTC)
• Delete as nn. I thought band vanity was part of the new criterion. I'm glad to learn that it isn't not because I like band vanity articles, but so I don't tag them incorrectly. - Lucky 6.9 17:07, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

• Sure looks like a hoax. Hoaxes can be speedied (depends). At any rate, this is close to just nonsense. They're a French band, but they're not French. They have no records. They wanted to reach out to a twin sister somewhere (but not near) with the music? No one else's "Internet ha-ha" detector is ringing? There are enough internal inconsistencies for me to have gone along with a speedy (but not to fight for it). Delete in any case. Geogre 17:50, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
