Red Cord Records (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)

A while back the Red Cord Records page was deleted based on no source or good sources. I have physical credited magazines that have discussed the label or a band in-depth. What do I need to do to get the page undeleted or have a discussion about it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JakeJohnson12345 (talkcontribs)

  • Could you tell us what these sources are, please? Physical credited magazines should have an ISBN ISSN and page number that you can list.—S Marshall T/C 20:15, 4 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • That may not always be the case, but magazines to be used as reliable sources should have publisher info as well as titles, dates, and pages. And I think you meant ISSN... Jclemens (talk) 06:52, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thanks for quibbling that, Jclemens. I did indeed mean ISSN and not ISBN.—S Marshall T/C 08:29, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        • ISSN numbers are merely bar-codes for the trade and are not required. Nor is presentation of any source required for a courtesy userfication so that the article may be worked on further. The creator should be advised, however, that a future attempt at reestablishing the piece in mainspace will be closely scrutinized and will need to show multiple, independently published sources dealing with the subject in some depth in a presumably reliable way.

  • Also worth pointing out, I think, that coverage of a band signed to the label would not be considered coverage of the label itself. We would need coverage of the label itself. Stalwart111 14:04, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe, maybe not — it depends on context. For example: a long interview in which a band member is asked about, and talks about, the label may well count towards GNG as long as the passage about the label is substantial enough. In general, most articles about bands will not count towards GNG for the label, however. Carrite (talk) 17:16, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
