'''Deletion nomination''' as a non-notable band. Contested speedy, bringing here for further comment. The relevent guideline, [[WP:MUSIC]], especially the relevent section titled "Criteria for musicians and ensembles", has twelve criteria that would allow a band or group to have an article here at wikipedia. This group meets NONE of those criteria. There seems to be a tenuous future release of a single; however there does not appear to be ANY reliable sources around which this article can be built yet. [[WP:NOT|wikipedia is not a crystal ball]] and this band MAY someday be notable. It is not now, however.

* Definitely '''delete''' for failing [[WP:CRYSTAL]] and [[WP:BAND]] - similar to other deleted band articles. [[User:Shalom|Shalom]] <sup>[[User talk:Shalom|Hello]]</sup> 17:33, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
* Disagree, '''keep'''. I find 4 points in that criteria that this group meets, including: <br>* Has had a charted hit on any national music chart - Hey! Say! was #1 in the Oricon Japan charts<br>* Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country - Hey! Say! is certified GOLD by the RIAJ<br>* Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a compilation album - Is performing the theme song for Japan's Volleyball World Cup effort, etc.<br>* Has been the subject of a half hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network - Had a whole 40 minute timeslot dedicated to their debut announcement just today, besides another appearance in another music program barely 2 hours later<Br>P.S. They're also having a debut concert in Tokyo Dome - biggest stadium in Japan. How many groups are notable for that? - [[User:Akaru|Akaru]] 17:40, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
**All of the above points apply to DIFFERENT groups, namely the groups Hey! Say! and Hey! Say! 7. Notability is not inherited; this new group does not automatically become notable because a precursor band did a theme song to a TV show. --[[User:Jayron32|Jayron32]]|[[User talk:Jayron32|<small>talk</small>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Jayron32|<small>contribs</small>]] 17:44, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
***Hey! Say! 7 IS a subgroup within this group now. Hey! Say! is not a group, it is a song by Hey! Say! 7, whose all 5 members are in this group, and even the name Hey! Say! 7 now exist as a subgroup under this main group. Technically, this IS Hey! Say! 7 renamed, and with new members added. Hey! Say! JUMP is also singing the Japan World Cup Volleyball theme song - something of national level. What about that? - [[User:Akaru|Akaru]] 17:49, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
