Strong keep - one of the most notable Christian record labels of the late 80s and early 90s. Numerous, numerous notable artists. Large impact on Christian culture. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 13:33, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The president of the company is a good promoter, but other than Mark Heard, the first two Whiteheart and a few of his own albums, none are notable. There was no large impact on Christian culture as 78.26 claims. And really nothing written about the label except complaints about how the label was run, but those were by the artists or bands involved. And being written about is what makes a subject notable.

I worked at a Christian radio station during this time period, and recordings from this label were in heavy rotation, and they HSH songs regularly appeared on the Christian charts of the time period. This is pre-internet, and I do not have access, but this is not an insignificant label. That said, I agree Christian is a good promoter, was probably written by him or his staff, and the article desperately needs an NPOV re-write. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 15:14, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: A notable record label with an important number of well-known artists signed to the label. werldwayd (talk) 21:27, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep seems to have been significant for its genre Atlantic306 (talk) 21:29, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
