Not notable. No significant mainstream achievements. Andrew Duffell (talk) 11:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Crafty Simian have relesed records,appeared in the NME, toured with some of the biggest bands in the uk and are signed to redzonemusic so they should nok be deleted as they are relevent in todays music scene —Preceding unsigned comment added by Citizen66 (talk • contribs) 15:21, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can you provide some references for your statements, because a quick google search doesn't seem to bring anything up. In fact, I can't find any evidence of 'redzonemusic' existing. Andrew Duffell (talk) 21:12, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at the page there is a link to redzonemusic site in the references along with other links to sites provinding all the relevent references needed —Preceding unsigned comment added by Citizen66 (talk • contribs) 15:21, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The RedZoneMusic site is being used as a reference for them being signed to RedZoneMusic, but on inspection of their one page website it doesn't say anywhere on it that Crafty Simian are one of their artists. Also, RedZoneMusic in themselves appear none-notable.

crafty simian only signed to them 2 weeks ago and if you research band managment very few managment companys advertise themselfs online try finding the oasis managers and you will see they have no website! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Citizen66 (talk • contribs) 16:10, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can we have a valid citation for it please. Also, the NME "interview" turns out to be a letter sent to the unsigned bands letters page in NME! Any band can get on that page. http://twitpic.com/QVST6

I'd also like the question what your connection to the band is? I think you may have a conflict of interest in this article. Andrew Duffell (talk) 16:15, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not a convincing case for meeting WP:BAND guidelines. Appears to be written by either band members or people closely associated with the band, as this is not a major band with a fanbase. Additionally, the article is of very poor quality. Enigma^msg 19:33, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 10:37, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Enigma. Doesn't seem notable at least at this point. mauler90 (talk) 18:54, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Even if all the above were thoroughly referenced, I still don't see anything that meets WP:MUSICBIO. Accounting4Taste:talk 19:24, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
