Mercy Fall

Apparently non-notable band; completely unsourced article and while there are shedloads of ghits, they all appear to be blogs, myspace pages & Wiki mirrors. Much of the article also seems to be a cut-and-paste from AMG. Not prodding due to the multiple article contributors, none of whom appear to have seen any problem with it — perhaps there is some notability here that I'm missing? — iridescent 16:35, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - If it doesn't have significane coverage in reliable secondary sources, it's not notable no matter how many mayspaces or forum posts (which are defined as unreliable) it appears in. Subdolous 17:48, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Found these examples of significant coverage in reliable sources: Billboard magazine and Saturday Night Magazine and Hard Alternative and Arizona Central and The Gauntlet and Hard Rock Haven. There appears to be enough out there to indicate notability exists. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 18:00, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep based on Jayron32's findings, I think it meets the guidelines and should be kept. –Kadin2048 20:30, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, one of a million bands just like it. -RiverHockey 13:31, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Article needs much work, but they did have a Billboard charting hit[1] so there's WP:MUSIC for you. Precious Roy 15:48, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
