[edit] The Aurora Collide

The Aurora Collide (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable band. Had been tagged for speedy deletion, but tag was removed after assertion of notability was made. Notability claim appears to be based around criteria 7 under WP:BAND: that the band has become the most prominent representative of the music scene of a city. However, no citations are given, and a google search[1] comes up with one match that isn't the band. - Fordan (talk) 12:28, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Nothing here that satisfies WP:BAND other than an unreferenced claim. EliminatorJR Talk 12:38, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Per EliminatorJR plus - No assertation of notability, no singles or albums released that have made it into the charts. Bands name fails an Amazon test. Also the fact that this is a Christian Rock band (according to the article) and the creating editor's user name is he-died-for-you (my hyphens) strongly indicates WP:COI Pedro |  Chat  13:38, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Given that Christian Rock bands tend to have fans (and/or editors) who are strongly Christian, I don't see the username as a indicative of a COI. - Fordan (talk) 14:03, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Reply Yes, sorry that wasn't well phrased by me and didn't show much good faith. The fact of the name as above, coupled with the fact that the account was created to write this article [2] boosted by the talk page comment I am currently gathering all the information I can with consent from band members indicates a possible WP:COI. Not that it matters as the article fails under WP:MUSIC but thanks for pointing that out to me. Pedro |  Chat  14:55, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per the two above. I found nothing to support keeping this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hiberniantears (talk • contribs) 13:40, 18 July 2007

  • Delete - formed this year, eight Google hits... not much there to work with. Tony Fox (arf!) review? 20:04, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
