Band does not appear to meet WP:NMG; two EPs and no albums so far. Written by COI editor who reverts most changes to it. Stifle (talk) 08:34, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete No Google news hits. A general Google search yields MySpace, music downloading sites like MP3.com and Napster, Twitter profile, record label page, among other stuff that can't be used to assert notability. The article itself has no references to back up anything it says. Plus the creator of the article Konqistador seems to have made this article for pure promotional reasons and there are COI concerns.

- Delete - No indications of notability for this band and a worrysome editing pattern on top of it. Shadowjams (talk) 11:34, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this band. Joe Chill (talk) 20:00, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment If you notice the registered name of the article creator, it just screams COI and promotion as the creator and the band name are the same. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 22:53, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep albeit weakly. Hmmm, issues here. First of all, the editing--sure, bands shouldn't write their own articles, nor should they have SPAs removing AfD and other templates (I warned them on their talk page). But that's not a reason for deletion. I found a little bit of coverage which I've added; I've also made some other edits that will hopefully satisfy Stifle who must have run out of maintenance templates after they were done with this one. ;) Seriously, I think we have a moderately notable band here, and I think that not all the matters brought up here warrant deletion--for COI and other problems, we have the WikiPolice, of which I am apparently an honorary member. As for the band's music, I'll ask my little brother, he's hip. Drmies (talk) 18:52, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
