- Keep as article restorer The nominator's assertions are refuted by the content of the article at the time of nomination, which included citations to full articles/reviews from three major (inter)national music publications. I added a few more references since. Meets WP:MUSIC bullet 1, among others. Chubbles (talk) 19:18, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Reply. Sources (after the additional ones added):
- allmusic.com. Database entry. Doesn't assist in establishing notability unless shows chart status.
- popmatters.com. User-contributed article. Doesn't establish notability.
- pitchfork.com. This is the only debatable sources. I submit that the source is insufficient to establish notability (depth of coverage is OK).
- chartattack.com. Not a RS.
- splendidezine.com. Not a RS.
- hybridmagazine.com. Not a RS.
- citypaper.net. Local coverage insufficient to establish notability. Bongomatic 22:50, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Reply. Sources (after the additional ones added):
- Keep The Allmusic, Popmatters and Pitchfork coverage show that WP:MUSIC is met. I agree with Chubbles' point above; Allmusic and Pitchfork are about as WP:RS as it gets for WP:MUSIC. Thanks --sparkl!sm hey! 05:22, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Add -- D'Anjolell, Richard (8 May 2003), "CHOICE ; WHAT OUR CRITICS SAY", Morning Star -- to Allmusic bio and reviews and Pitchfork and local coverage this band has enough coverage. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:43, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Significant coverage from multiple reliable review sites. Gongshow Talk 17:08, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Coverage cited in the article was already sufficient, and I've added refs to another half-dozen album reviews. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 04:22, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
