Revision as of 14:25, 22 July 2008
- Ollabelle (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
After I tagged this article for speedy, its creator mentioned something about a rather high number of listeners on an online music site. It seems credible, so I withdrew my own speedy and brought the article here. Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 02:29, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I'd say keep because there does seem to be some notability through WP:BAND and sourcing available. BUT... my WP:HEY is that the article be expanded with more information and the sourcing to go with it. The article, as it is, is not encyclopedic. --Pmedema (talk) 09:14, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- Keep As the (re)creator of this article, I agree with Pmedema that it needs expanded, and can work on this. I'd also like to thank Blanchardb for not speedy-deleting them.
- 1. Ollabelle is fairly well known, appearing in locations such as Madison Square Park, and
- 2. 13 Wikipedia pages already mention and link to Ollabelle
- 3. They have 3K listeners on last.fm.
- 4. Members of Ollabelle have played in the same band as members of Jeff Buckley's band. (See: [1])
- 5. Members of Ollabelle have been featured in Chris Smither's album Leave the Light On, which is notable enough to have its own Wikipedia article.
- --AlanH (talk) 01:52, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Update: I have expanded the article, hoping that it is more encyclopedic now. Additionally, I have learned:
- 6. Ollabelle's second album was produced by a longtime member of Bob Dylan's band.

- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletion discussions. -- the wub "?!" 12:54, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: Ollabelle seems to be notable enough for inclusion, but just barely. The page seriously needs to be Wikifyed and alot more information needs to be included. I'd say delete now, but if the author could add more information and confirm notability, then i'd say keep. – Jerryteps 03:45, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - if you think they are notable enough for inclusion (even if barely), then there is no reason to delete the article. A lack of references is an editting issue that could be addressed with a {{unref}} tag. -- Whpq (talk) 13:09, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment All information in the article is referenced. --AlanH (talk) 14:51, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

- Keep and expand this interview from All Things Considered, and this review in Entertainment Weekly is rather convincing. I also found this, this, this and a few other news hits that look promising. If I weren't about to go to bed, I'd expand the article myself. Ten Pound
