I can't find significant coverage for this album. Joe Chill (talk) 00:06, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep WP:NALBUMS states: "In general, if the musician or ensemble that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia. Demos, mixtapes, bootlegs, promo-only, and unreleased albums are in general not notable...." I don't believe this album falls under the category "mixtapes," as it was released by a legitimate record company as a chronicle of a music festival. I also don't believe that it falls under "promo-only," although I could be wrong. Ultimately, since numerous notable artists perform on this album, my conclusion is that the compilation album is sufficiently notable. Like Joe, I had difficulty finding significant coverage; nevertheless, because all the content in the article is verifiable, I think notability is sufficient for the aforementioned reasons.

Keep. Has inherited notability, due to the notability of its artists. Wiwaxia (talk) 01:41, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is not inherited. The artists pass WP:MUSIC, but this album doesn't. Joe Chill (talk) 01:42, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep I would just add that The Bamboozle event has achieved some notability, so even if the artists have not inherited that same notability, event-related products might be notable by association. I'm not sure if I am missing anything in the notability guidelines on this, so that's why my vote is "weak keep." Doomsdayer520 (talk) 15:24, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
