Does not appear to satisfy WP:BAND Reaper Eternal (talk) 14:21, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I did a good bit of searching to try and find sources for this, to no avail - Heavy Bones are just about notable, Cats In Boots might be (there are one or two reviews out there, plus a charted (in Japan) single), but Ellis himself - not so much.

Delete Same here. The bands might just scrape notability thanks to one hit wonder status, but the individual does not seem to meet the notability guideline.--SabreBD (talk) 14:49, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Lacks multiple WP:RS to satisfy WP:BAND or even WP:GNG … my attempt to speedy delete the recreation was declined. Happy Editing! — 71.166.140.155 (talk · contribs) _{16:37, 17 February 2012 (UTC)}[reply]
Comment by article creator Joel Ellis started his own side project which sold fairly well in the US, not much is know about the band Cats In Boots in the western world I happen to have their first vinyl which was a very big seller at the time. Joel is notable for being the frontman of the ONLY intercontinental rock band in history so an important person. Yothers (talk) 19:32, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails to meet our N guidelines.--Epeefleche (talk) 04:13, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The topic doesn't appear to meet WP:GNG. I found this interview on Sleazeroxx.com, but the site doesn't meet Wikipedia's guideline for reliable sources. Just not finding coverage in reliable sources, let alone significant coverage. Northamerica1000^(talk) 20:28, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
