Band page created too soon - band may be notable soon, but they aren't there yet as near as I can tell. ThaddeusB (talk) 04:29, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete — Fails WP:NOTCRYSTAL and WP:BAND ContinueWithCaution (talk) 05:26, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete- Most sources appear to be myspace, facebook, or self-generated sources. Fails WP:BAND --Fbifriday (talk) 06:29, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Agreed with above, as I can not find significant coverage in reliable sources sufficient for to pass WP:BAND. Gongshow Talk 10:48, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete I still fail to see why this wasn't speedied. With "new, up-and-coming", the insignificance of a high school battle of the bands, and the lack lack of a debut album, no notability is even asserted. Reywas92Talk 18:23, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The (weak) sourcing plus the talk page claims of importance were enough to avoid speedy.--ThaddeusB (talk) 01:42, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Not to be debating or questioning your judgement, and this will obviously be deleted, but "The members are only in high school", "They are friends with...", and "in the very near future" are not particularly credible claims of notability. Plenty of people have been interviewed in local non-notable magazines. Reywas92Talk 03:01, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Certainly the band is non-notable, and some admins would have speedy deleted it most likely. However, it is better to err on the side of caution and to me any kind of (non-faked) sourcing is enough to avoid speedy. Usually local-only sourced articles are deleted at AfD, but there are exceptions, so it is best to let the community decide than for me to decide unilaterally, IMO. --ThaddeusB (talk) 03:11, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this band. Joe Chill (talk) 02:20, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Playing at "Park West" in Chicago being interviewed by the famous "Time Out" company, and being played almost every night on 93.1 WXRT-FM is pretty significant, especially for band with members no older than 17. --DoctorAmazing 12:21, 30 Novemeber 2009
