Head Not Found[edit]

Sub-label with a number of artists, possibly. With no references except for the label's home page anything goes. A number of the articles about the listed artists are also being nominated for deletion. Either the article must be adequately referenced or it should be deleted, or possibly redirected to parent label if that connection is deemed real. meco (talk) 22:41, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep WP:MUSIC defines "the more important indie labels" as "an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are notable". (bullet 5). By that standard, Head Not Found clearly merits inclusion, as most of its currently listed roster are metal bands of significance on the Scandinavian scene. (Several of these acts are up for deletion because the nominator of this article listed them all at the same time as this one; most of them will pass muster.) The label is of clear cultural importance such as to merit inclusion. Chubbles (talk) 23:35, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep All the bands on this label are notable Syxxpackid420 (talk) 19:07, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

some of the bands have questionable notability or indeed up for deletion, so this is not an argument for notability. LibStar (talk) 07:31, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Of the four bands on this label who were nominated for deletion in the past month, two have ended in "keep", and of the two that are still open, one is likely to survive. Even if one of those four does indeed get deleted, this argument for notability wouldn't be much harmed. Chubbles (talk) 14:26, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
