[edit] The Steroids (Band)

I prodded, removed by creator. My prod rationale was: "Assertion of non-notability in article: "Despite extensive touring, they never had their big break." Fails WP:BAND. Note that there is a listing of a number of hit singles "#2 in US" in the infobox but the links are to songs made famous and hitting the top of the charts by famous bands such as Deep Purple, and thus appear to be listing of covers by The Steroids." The listing of "hit singles" and of non-notability I flagged were also removed with the prod tag. --Fuhghettaboutit 02:32, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Speedy Delete No assertion of notability whatsoever. "They are the first bands in Belgrano Day School to have a Website". ÜberCruft, WP:NOT for things you made up in school etc.... Deizio 04:48, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Don't Delete it I'm from Argentina and I know The Steroids, they are a small band of guys who are just starting in the matter but had relative importance in Buenos Aires' "undertown" with their last single (king of Kings), I was really surprised to found info about them here and I promise to edit it correctly to satisfy wikipedia User:Fache

I refuse to even look at this AFD --Barry Bonds 09:06, 12 March 2006 (UTC) Fuhghettaboutit

  • Delete, fails WP:BAND. Sadly, the dubious "Very well known" assertion keeps it from a speedy. —Cryptic (talk) 19:19, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete WP:BAND and WP:Music violations. Non-notable band.  (aeropagitica)  19:21, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
