Comment. Even with the new refs, I don't think it meets notability standards. The refs include only 2 newspaper articles, and the articles appear to be relatively minor reports on the existence of the group. Nothing notable there.Wikigonish (talk) 14:40, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete, per nom.--Esprit15d • wish me a happy wikiversary! • contribs 21:30, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – I've added three references and there are more to come. It does not qualify as a speedy candidate. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 22:27, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - In my mind it is still a non-notable band, so it is a speedy deletion candidate. The albums didn't chart, and the band only has notability in an incredibly small state.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 13:40, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So, now I have expanded the article, with six newspaper articles as sources. Not all are entirely about Amoebic Ensemble, but all are non-trivial mentions. The one by Andy Smith was also reprinted in The Buffalo News. There's enough there for WP:N or WP:MUSIC criterion #1. Keep. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 00:52, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, passes WP:MUSIC#C1. Esradekan Gibb ^"Talk" 01:22, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Withdrawn by nominator - No need for anything to continue now that it satisfies C1. Asenine 22:24, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – To Wikigonish: It's six separate newspaper articles, all of which are non-trivial references, one of which addresses the subject exclusively, spanning over a decade. To Esprit15d: The newspapers are from Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New York, not just a single state. Furthermore, if the subject meets the general notability guideline (a.k.a. WP:MUSIC criterion #1), then there is no need to address the other aspects of WP:MUSIC such as charting albums and so on. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 18:46, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
