The Gift (Ryan Shupe & The RubberBand album)[edit]

I really like Ryan Shupe & The RubberBand (Dream Big was soooo under-rated), but there's very little info on this album anywhere. No third party reviews or other coverage, and the album was apparently self-released. (At least their other albums all have reviews on All Music Guide, otherwise I might ask to delete those too.)

So what works as verifiable third party references. You've already shot down my Last Man Standing page (that was cited with about 5 sources, and I can back it up with more cites now). Why is the artist's own page with discography not considered legit? Would a retailer selling the CD be enough? It obviously exists (why would I make it up), so you (being the great "genius" that you are) enlighten me on what I have to cite for it to be fixed or legit or whatever it has to be.User:RobDMB • 20:47, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You need multiple reliable third-party sources. News articles about the album, professional reviews, et cetera. That kind of thing. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 20:30, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

Comment There is an All Music Guide link in the article, but it only lists the track listing. It doesn't even have the cover art. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 20:56, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, article fails to establish notability as per WP:MUSIC. Esradekan Gibb ^"Talk" 00:16, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment To Ten Pound Hammer, how about instead of going through everything I post and deleting it, you actually try to help me out? I am OBVIOUSLY new at this and all you're doing is being rude. How about instead of deleting it, add something to it. I don't know too much about this site other than what I've posted and that people supposedly add things to these articles. You're completely turning me off to this whole thing. There are hundreds of dicographies on this site from bands ranging from tiny to huge, and I thought it was apporpriate to post these articles (I speak of both this article and the Last Man Standing album article), in order to flesh out the band's complete discography. All Music Guide is not the only credible source in the world; and why does the citation have to have a rating? That doesn't make any sense to me. There's not even a reliable way for me to actually have a conversation with you. I am seriously unhappy about the way you are treating my posts, and I guess I can't really do anything. Thanks for nothing and I hope that you and your elitist attitude find something real to do besides police an open source website. User:RobDMB 22:56, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
