The Ghost (Faroese band)[edit]

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

This 2-sentence band article was prodded under A7, and the prod was removed without any explanation as to why it met the A7 prod criteria. I've performed a wp:before search, and cannot myself find indicia of notability under wp standards, including sufficient RS coverage. Others are welcome to try.

It has now been slightly extended by me and another editor. — fnielsen (talk) 17:14, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I agree that it's not a particularly notable band. But the RS references in the article -- GAFFA magazine (essentially Denmark's equivalent of Rolling Stone) [1], [2] , and Danish National Broadcasting [3] plus an interview on the Faroe Islands Podcast [4] -- provide enough coverage to pass our minimal criteria for notability and verifiability. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 17:44, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep I think WP:Notability (local interests) comes into play here. For those who don't understand why see Faroe Islands. Being a large fish in a small pond (I'm sorry if that English expression confuses) can, and should, confer the notability Wikipeida demands, and they have established some interest internationally. --AJHingston (talk) 09:32, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
