"In 2006 and 2007 they were nominated for best Calgary DJ in the Canadian Stylus DJ awards" says it all. Doesn't even meet the minimal standards of WP:MUSIC. Had a notability tag since September 2007, though an IP editor removed it shortly before this nomination. THF (talk) 02:23, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Barely. Two of the sources listed (FFWD, Beatroute) meet our criteria for either mainstream or specialist sources. The articles on those sources are specifically about these people and they are multiple paragraphs in length and not just passing mentions. This meets our minimum bar for notability.

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

• Question. I agree that the Beatroute source meets standards, but the FFWD site? That looks to me to be a purely Calgary-centric, or at least, no more than an Albertacentric site. Does that affect its suitability as a source? Unschool 02:24, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • No. Regional publications serve as excellent reliable sources and allow us to make a verifiable record of notable things specific to that region. Miami33139 (talk) 00:01, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Passes WP:N. Barely. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 03:42, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
