Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barobax (2nd nomination)
Objection: Barobax is an underground Iranian band. How can there be professional reviews for a band that is banned in its home country? The notability of this underground band is demonstrated by the fact that their music sells on both iTunes and Amazon, and that they have produced professional videos despite censorship in Iran. The phenomenon of underground Iranian music is very noteworthy and if you delete this page then you'll be doing the Iranian censors a favor.

An attempt was made to nominate this article for deletion on the 9th by substituting the template directly onto the log. I reverted that and am completing a proper nomination. The original nomination rationale was "deleted before, the article assert some notability on Google mostly for a music video , not enough to meet WP:Music , no professional reviews" and the nominator is User:Spada2.
