Fab Four Ultimate Beatles Tribute

Fab Four Ultimate Beatles Tribute (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Non-notable band. The article makes some grandiose claims: they perform "all over the world", "started to make it big", "praised by many", "popular", "highly professional and accomplished musician[s]", "popularity continuously ... on the rise", "loving tribute ... has amazed audiences around the world", "across the globe", and of course, "please visit the official website". But let's try to sweep away some of this puffery. First, none of the sources is independent: of 15 links, 7 are the band's own site and 8 are self-published sites or blogs. And second, this "popular" band has just 130 Google hits - not much real-world confirmation of that "popularity". Obvious self-promotion here, so delete.

  • delete. My first impression was to keep, but trying to verify the information provided seemed a bit harder than it should have been. If the information is not able to be verified, it fails notability. Mrathel (talk) 06:17, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This is ridiculous, this is a valid group. The creator makes a good point, if the Fab Faux can have a page (and THEIR page is clearly self-promoting!), then the Fab Four can have one. Also the person who made the claim about Google hits is wrong - try searching for just 'Fab Four.' The Fab Four and their website, www.thefabfour.com, comes up #1 and has over 1,040,000 hits. Someone just has it out for this page for some reason and it's ridiculous, let it stay.
