• since your request for notability I added reports from news sources: District of Sound band interview ,The Northwest Current coverage of a performance, preview to a future performance, and description of recording process, as well as an article from the Little Hoya. If these do not satisfy the notability requirement as I read it here on Wikipedia, please reveal exactly what is required in such an article. --M6arate (talk) 00:58, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
• Also, now cited two articles from The Washington Post from June 3rd, 2009. --M6arate
  • This isn't a game of "find their name mentioned somewhere". There has to be significant coverage in reliable 3rd party sources which "address the subject directly in detail". These recently added references dont do much to establish notability here. They appear to be simple schedules about appearances rather than articles on the band itself. ,--RadioFan (talk) 01:13, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

The NW Current is a full article about their music, performances, and recording setup. The post article briefed artists to perform at the fort reno concert series, and power pirate is part of this article. The various interviews cited were not "finding their name somewhere" but rather actual interviews about the band regarding their training, method, policy, and ability of the members. Shall I write a source for their radio interview as well? —Preceding

• Earlier, User:Fuhghettaboutit removed the deletion notice from the page, saying it had just barely enough credentials to pass. Since then, several more have been added. I would like to work with you to get this page to be acceptable to your interpretation of the wikipedia standards. (When compared to that of User:Fuhghettaboutit ) The several interviews cited satisfy the notability requirement- being 3rd party sources addressing the subject in detail, as you said to m6arate on the Power Pirate Articles for deletion page.

If you have nothing more to add, please say so and remove the deletion tag. Otherwise, Let me know what needs to be done and I will work on this article until it meets your approval.

Thank you for working to maintain high standards on Wikipedia. --96.255.246.53 (talk) 05:18, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

• The post seems to pass Wikipedia's criterion. While the edits RadioFan suggested that have now been made were helpful, at this point it seems that the page has met the quality standards required for a post to avoid deletion. --64.129.84.194 (talk) 05:32, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
