Non-notable band. Article was moved from draft space and I originally returned it. After examining the article I noticed that it claim the band started 6 December 2023. However, the the only reference was published 2 February 2021. This was at least 17 months before auditions started. In addition the reference seemed to be about three young women and not twelve young men. The article provides no references for a band that has only released two singles and was created by a non-notable reality show, 789 SURVIVAL.

- Comment: The citation currently in the article was clearly incorrectly inserted, probably the result of an inappropriate copy/paste job. But may I remind the nominator that Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article. A Google News search for BUS 789 Survival turns up plenty of Thai-language coverage. (I'm not !voting keep just yet due to quality concerns raised by the aforementioned copy/pasting). --Paul_012 (talk) 02:45, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes but as said the band does not appear to be notable. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 15:07, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Their music have already been released. The band was split into 2 different subunits: BUS5 and BUS7. It should be easier to find sources from these 2 names. --Lerdsuwa (talk) 02:42, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- Draftify. Should not linger in mainspace with WP:V problems that are basic in nature: Who are Bus? Are they one or two groups? Who are in those two groups? Geschichte (talk) 21:16, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete/Draftify. Although there is coverage, there are not many WP:RS, what I could find was a) social networks b) fandom c) a website called kprofiles that looks user-generated (though my results may be not the best due to language settings). — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 18:49, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Lack of available WP:RS establishing notability. GhostOfNoMeme 16:37, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Draftify for now, and potentially merge to Tada Entertainment once that article is created. There is RS coverage, but not much that's in-depth about the group itself. --Paul_012 (talk) 03:35, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
