The Jades (Canadian band)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Although this band includes one member who was later famous, the band itself made only one performance and no recordings. Almost all of the history section will need to be deleted because it is a copyright violation of http://www.angelfire.com/rock2/traces/pages/keeperoftheflame.html, which has had this content since at least 2001. Most of the content is not about the band anyway. Although there is mention of the band in reliable sources about Neil Young, they all give the same three of four facts mentioned here, which could be added to Young's article if desired. —Anne Delong (talk) 04:14, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. What little content we can properly source about this band can be dispatched with one or two sentences in Neil Young, without needing a whole separate standalone article. Bearcat (talk) 00:24, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete While perhaps slightly worthy of a footnote in biographical articles of the members, a "band" who had a single performance and no recordings hardly qualifies as a "band", and certainly sustains no notability based on the sources provided. The two references provided are to the same site, albeit different pages, and one page doesn't even mention them. The other the does...that's it; just mentions them. Total failure of WP:NBAND, with a slight exception with point #6. However, there's nothing to go on here as there is no material for the band, no recordings, no writeups, no reviews, nothing. The copyright violation is of course problematic, but would be wiped out by the deletion anyway. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:27, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
PS: _Please_ do not relist this. Two weeks of presence on AfD is plenty. Another relisting will not produce anything useful. Thank you. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:28, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
