The result was delete. Despite the apparently large number of "keep" comments, they turn out to be worth very little, for two reasons. (1) Checking the history makes it clear that all of them are from either one sockpuppeteer or a couple of people acting together as meatpuppets, so that effectively there is only one "keep" comment. (2) Among those comments we see the following. Such vague statements as "Festivals are all valid". (What does that mean? That they really are festivals? That they are significant ferstivals? That the claim that Kinder played at them is justified? Or what?) A link to show "Confirmed national radio play" which turns out to mean that one track was once played, on a station of I know not how much or how little significance. A note telling us that from a Google search "many sources were found", but no indication that any of those "sources" was of a kind that shows notability. And so on ... When we give all that the amount of weight that it merits, we are left with a consensus to delete. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:29, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe WP:NBAND is met; the music festivals listed are of unclear notability themselves. Their first single was released in July 2018, likely WP:TOOSOON. power~enwiki (π, ν) 22:02, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Festivals are all valid. They were on the GTM tour in 2017. They played Splendour in the Grass 2017, Party in the Paddock in 2018 and will play Spilt Milk Festival in the later half of 2018. They have also played Alison Wonderland's Festival and This That Festival. REF: http://musicfeeds.com.au/news/party-paddock-announces-2018-set-times/

You know you can't vote twice, yeah? Also, Unearthed is not national radio play: It's a website for unsigned artists.Doctorhawkes (talk) 04:13, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If you check the second link you will see they have been played a number of times on the actual triple j radio. They are also on regular rotation on a swedish radio which came up on a google hit. https://sverigesradio.se/sida/avsnitt/1112448?programid=4067 04:15, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

    • Comment: Sorry about that.
  • Keep Passes Notability. After an initial Google search I couldn't find much on the subject matter; however after rewording the name 'Kinder Dj's' many sources were found. 4:06, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
  • Comment The amount of music festivals they have played is quite significant. They have also been played on triple j regularly which is credited on their website. 21:43, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
