College musical group, with no indications of independent notability, either as a music group or as a club. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 17:36, 3 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Added Bangerang!, an album produced by this group. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 17:40, 3 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BAND or WP:ORG, whichever one prefers. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:55, 3 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:BAND. Also, I apparently missed the AfD tag at Bangerang!; I turned it into a redirect back to the Overtones' article. —C.Fred (talk) 18:15, 3 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment @ C.Fred: No, you didn't miss the AFD tag at Bangerang!. I forgot to place it when I added it to this discussion. My bad. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 18:23, 3 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to JMU#Clubs and organizations The jmu.edu website here is a primary source that associates the group with the university, which is all that is needed for inclusion in the encyclopedia. Redirects are cheap, and the article is too poorly sourced to be concerned about whether or not the topic merits a standalone article. The existence of published albums creates a long-term need by the world at large to know more about the group, and Mohindroo has single-handedly raised the wp:prominence of the group; even though JMU#Clubs and organizations needs work and possibly a separate article.

Delete - Pretty clearly fails WP:BAND. STATic message me! 05:11, 7 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I saw this article as a new page patroller when it was created and debated marking it for CSD A7, but did not. Its albums were all created and then made into redirects. Article is an orphan other than from Mohindroo, which should be changed to reflect deletion if article is deleted (and its several redirects would need to be deleted as well). Overall, delete because non-notable band. --kikichugirl (talk) 23:13, 10 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
