Non-notable. Three google hits. Delete. utcursch | talk 12:43, 6 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- An article on a guy without limbs that sings in a baby carriage would make notable sense to me, but an article on his band that gets only 3 google hits wouldn't. Speedy under A7. -- SoothingR 12:46, 6 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete unfortunately not a speedy candidate because A7 is for nn-bio, not band vanity. Another example why we need a speedy for bands that don't meet WP:MUSIC. Isotope23 15:28, 6 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep As the author of this page I am well aware the content of this page is quite questionable and arguably sensitive, however, I do feel that this page cannot be deemed 'irrelevant’ context and should be preserved as an entry on the Wikipedia server. I can assure all naive readers that indeed this band exists and I believe the interesting, albeit unusual details of the band members deems this relevant for archival on Wikipedia. I should also note that although at the time of writing, this page on Wikipedia has recieved but 3 views on Google, it has only existed for a little over 24 hours as I created this page last night. Obviously this article is a stub and hopefully over time a reader with more information on the band will come forward and provide information towards this page. Until then, I fully believe this article should wholly remain as a stub on Wikipedia as it is relevant to the history of music, (if only a fraction). Furthermore, although the use of the racist connotation 'niggers' may be considered 'sensitive', banning this page on the reason of political correctness is just another form of censorship. Wikipedias' simple aim is to provide information to the masses via the internet and as this particular band has a seldom source of information on it, I feel it's Wikipedias' aim to provide as much information as possible out of the little that's already available on the internet. Thank you for your consideration. --Topclaw 15:10, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as nn as per WP:MUSIC. (The perceived offense of the band's name is irrelevant; we have an article on nigger in any case.) MCB 01:25, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
