The result was keep, but I'd recommend the keep voters spend some time cleaning the article up, it looks quite poor as it stands. Wizardman 16:21, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. We should avoid systematic bias here. This band appears to have some notability in Egypt, even if not in the Anglosphere. [1] [2] [3] [4] etcetera, needs an expert on the subject though.--h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 19:06, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. Agree with comments made by HisSpaceResearch. Mh29255 (talk) 19:20, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - article appears to be copied from their myspace page. Plus, the user who created this article has the user name "Massar14" obviously indicating a WP:COI. The article, if kept, would need to be stripped down and completely re-written. Did anyone not notice this before? Scarian ^{Call me Pat} 23:26, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
