The Royal Oui

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

Delete. Completely unsourced article about a band which just asserts that they exist, and completely fails to even try to make a claim to passing WP:NMUSIC for anything. As always, a band is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because they exist; reliable source coverage which verifies passage of a notability criterion must be present for an article to become earned. This was originally listed for prod, but the prod template was removed by another editor with no actual rationale (or improved evidence of notability) provided except "remove wp:PROD take to wp:AfD if you feel strongly about it". Which, er, not a real reason. Bearcat (talk) 06:55, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would say Delete - I found some minor references, but nothing that would make them appear noteworthy, from this corner of the globe (Ireland) anyway XyzSpaniel Talk Page 17:06, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Yes, the article is very lacking, but enough coverage exists both to establish notability and to allow the article to be improved, e.g.: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6] (p14), [7], [8], [9]. --Michig (talk) 20:17, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unsubstantive blurbs right across the board, exactly zero of which actually support passage of any NMUSIC criterion. Bearcat (talk) 23:00, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
