[[User:Yellowbirdproject]] added a note about CYHSY's participation in a charity project. The project sounds very cool to me, but I don't think it's notable enough for inclusion here. This is an encyclopedia, not an index of all worthy endeavours. '''[[User:Omphaloscope|Omphaloscope]]''' ''[[User_talk:Omphaloscope|talk]]'' 01:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC) |

The band's involvement with the Yellow Bird Project, is completely intrinsic to them. They have a permanent link to their t-shirt design located in the shop section of their main website, and in addition they have spoke out in several blogs and interviews about their involvement with the project. Therefore, this meets the criteria for being a notable reference, and so I am adding this entry back onto their wikipedia page.

Isn't it "Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!" with an exclamation point?
Picture
Maybe it would be a good idea to list the members from left to right or atleast list them like that when you click on the picture. Could someone do this? (I dont know whos who) PrettyMuchBryce 12:42, 15 tApril 2006 (UTC)
- It'd be great if there was a picture. And one that didn't have a million fair use goons attacking it. --MightyGiant (talk) 21:05, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
Non-notable band?
How could it be proposed that this is an article about a non-notable band? Their music has been released in most first world countries and enjoyed regular rotation on at least one Australian radio station - far beyond Brooklyn. I disagree entirely with the idea they are not worthy of inclusion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shaybear (talk • contribs) 20:47 UTC, September 4, 2006.
- It's ridiculous, they clearly meet WP:BAND. Plenty of independent reviews[1], national tour, etc. --Dhartung | Talk 01:04, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Why CYHSY is notable
I've just removed a {{prod}} tag which calls the band "non notable". CYHSY meets the following criteria from Wikipedia:Notability (music):
- "Has been featured in multiple non-trivial published works in reliable and reputable media..."
- The band has been featured in Time Out New York ([2]), The Guardian ([3]), NME, Rolling Stone ([4]), and Pitchfork Media ([5], [6], [7], [8] [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]).
- "Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country, reported in notable and verifiable sources."
- This article on Pitchfork details their international tour dates: in the U.S., the U.K., Ireland, Japan, Belgium, Germany, France, Holland, Italy, Spain and Texas.
- "Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable sub-culture."
- The indie world is consumed by them, of course.
They are also notable in that the story of their early success is emblematic of how some recent bands have risen to success via the internet without the aid of a record label. This was the subject of a short story on National Public Radio: [16]. They also played on The David Letterman Show.[17] Omphaloscope talk 01:18, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
link to t-shirt charity
User:Yellowbirdproject added a note about CYHSY's participation in a charity project. The project sounds very cool to me, but I don't think it's notable enough for inclusion here. This is an encyclopedia, not an index of all worthy endeavours. Omphaloscope talk 01:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Pretentious
anyone think its pretentious that the lead singer said in rolling stones that "not signing to a major record label is artsy in itself."? - not signed in.

Image:Clapyyourpromo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
