Active M

Was tagged for speedy deletion for having "no encyclopedic content." At first glance, I thought it was another band vanity, but claims that newspaper articles have been written about them in The Sun, so I brought it to AfD instead. Googling reveals a number of hits as an up and coming band, but they seem to be unsigned still. howcheng {chat} 23:23, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

• They have a collaboration with a Gorillaz member who is IN the encyclopaedia also, so this might give the entry some more weight. As for band vanity, I would assume that if this was the case - they have not included pictures or media content - so I assume it's not that. The articles all check out and I do work in the industry (music journalist) and they have featured in the NME and Q for example. I am assuming someone has put them on the map here as they are mooted as one of the 'next big things'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.209.115.246 (talk • contribs) 10:42, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Can you get the issue numbers and dates of the articles? That would make them verifiable at least. howcheng {chat} 00:10, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
