The South (band)[edit]

New band of questionable notability outside their prior version, The Beautiful South - no significant claims for the new group at this time, except for the connection to the original. Tried redirecting to The Beautiful South, but an editor constantly reverted, so going this route to gain a wider consensus for the redirect. MikeWazowski (talk) 00:07, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The pointer at The South is sufficient, and this version of the band is already covered in the article The Beautiful South.--Michig (talk) 05:48, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per User:Michig. I tried to redirect this to The Beautiful South soon after it was created, but the redirect was reverted by User:Thesouthband with an accusation of WP:COI (!) in the edit summary. The original version could have been speedied G11, but with all of the WP:PROMO stripped out there's no assertion of notability here per WP:BAND outside of them being a re-launch of the original band.
