Was at one stage tagged as speedy but does not meet the criteria. However, also does not appear to meet WP:MUSIC, so delete. OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 14:10, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete this, as failing WP:MUSIC. All of the content from the article about this non-notable band is already in the Skrewdriver article. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 15:48, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Hm. On closer inspection, it seems this may be notable in Germany, which would explain why they didn't show up on in the usual places.
Abstain for now.- A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 17:41, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]- No, I was right the first time, I think. Based on my elementary understanding of German, I think there's a German band with the same name. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 17:51, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- There are 4,780 German language Google hits for Jewdriver, and all the ones I check seem to speak of "Jewdriver aus Kalifornien" or mention that they are from Oakland; they have also apparently made a CD together with a Christian band called Jesus Skins. These, on the other hand, appear to be from Hamburg and sing in German.[1][2]. Uppland 18:25, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh. Well, I guess I should go back to elementary school. Anyway, if they've only made a split EP and a self-published album, that's not even close to WP:MUSIC, even with German-language buzz. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 18:35, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete tribute band with political aspirations, clearly minions of Stan the lot of them. - Just zis Guy, you know? 15:44, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete because it doesn't meet WP:MUSIC, but kudos for cracking me up. Weird thing is that when I saw their name in the AfD before I read the article I thought "a Jewish Skrewdriver parody band perhaps? Nah, who would think of that..."--Isotope23 16:30, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. 11,000 Google hits, including some in German, indicates some degree of notability. Uppland 17:19, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. — Anarchivist | Talk 18:38, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Non-notable. --Arm 17:22, 27 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
