The Prototypes

This band from Leeds does not appear to meet the WP:MUSIC notability guidelines. According to the talk page, the article's subject has at times been confused with a different UK band (a London band who had a song, "Kaleidescope", that was used on the soundtrack of video game FIFA 07), and a French band who had a song, "Who's Gonna Sing?", used in an iPod commercial. The French band is potentially notable. But as for the current subject of this article, I was able to find any sources to help establish WP:N notability, either with Google News searching, or in a library database of newspaper and magazine articles. The listing on a band directory at BBC Leeds is not sufficient. An inquiry on the talk page regarding sources has gone unanswered. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 19:07, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The BBC Leeds entry is indeed not sufficient as it is user submitted. Icewedge (talk) 06:26, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
