The Nowadays[edit]

del shameless promo of a band debuted in september 2006. `'mikka (t) 19:16, 13 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete although one band member is pretty famous (Gary Brolsma). They are relatively new anyway. If they score big then re-create the article later. --Nishkid64 19:40, 13 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Shameless promo"? Please. An article DESCRIBES something, it does not ADVERTISE it. People on Wikipedia really need to get over that. Nevertheless, although this does meet WP:MUSIC by having a notable member, I suggest a Merge/Re-Direct until there's more press on the band to cite.

That's what it's supposed to do, yes. But when the actual homepage of the new Numa Numa brags on it's press page that Wikipedia articles have been written on new Numa Numa and the entry on this band, it becomes obvious that some people try and use Wikipedia as means of promoting their products.
