Vidoll

I promised I'd keep away from VFD, but this one doesn't meet WP:MUSIC criteria. Deltabeignet 01:37, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • You can't keep away! Try as you might, there are pages that can't be speedied but really need to be deleted. Get rid of it!

  • Keep, their discography is quite extensive. [1]. I wonder what the logic behind the above two votes is. Kappa 07:12, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep, but cleanup and expand. They dont appear to have released a full length album per se but there are quite a few EPs listed. No allmusic.com or artistdirect.com entry, however since they are not an American band and they dont appear to have many English releases, it is understable. Borderline entry.

  • Concur with Megan and delete. Radiant_* 12:22, May 30, 2005 (UTC)
  • 'Keep' this band is signed and has a discography they meet the criteria for bandsJCS 15:35, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect with Visual kei, which is not a very long article. Apparently a significant genre/style in Japan that does not appear to have spread much outside of Japan. I can't tell if this group is a significant representative of this genre or not. Soundguy99 16:24, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Appear to have a significant discography and have recorded live shows so would have completed a Japanese tour. If they have had a record chart in Japan, they would definitely qualify under the Wikimusic project guidelines. At least one album released by Universal Japan.

  • Weak keep. This definitely needs a lot of cleanup, but I do not see anything against keeping borderline cases. Andrew pmk 02:26, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep Cleanup and reformatting essential, plus at least a link to the Visual Kei article. This is a band I haven't heard of before, so if they have publicly released anything substantial (ie international releases), it'd best be listed, and maybe linked. --JB Adder | Talk 05:54, May 31, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. This really should have gotten a music-importance template before being brought here. Vegaswikian 01:59, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. I put the search terms "Vidoll kei" in Google and got over 4,600 hits. In addition to being the "flagship" band of the Under Code label (for whatever that is worth), this group is named on fan sites and blogs all over the world (US, Germany, Italy), they were covered in Vol. 1 of Cure, a Japanese magazine on the visual kei and indie scene (see eBay listing here), and their CD's appear on the lists of many commercial web sites. I'll admit to knowing nothing about the genre, but this is clearly not a local band. - DS1953 05:46, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
