non notable christian rock band. does not meet WP:BAND, WP:A, ⇒ SWATJester On Belay! 18:37, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, bundled with and for non-notability. The band only played one live show. Bobanny 19:09, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Was signed to important indie record label Tooth & Nail whose record Define the Great Line hit Gold status and debuted at #1 on the mainstream charts. Xcryoftheafflictedx 03:08, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. One of the lower benchmarks on WP:MUSIC is that the band have released two or more albums on a major or significant indie label. With only one album on a notable indie label and one live show, there does not appear to be justification for an article, let alone three articles and a category.--Kubigula (talk) 03:59, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep I was unfamiliar with the band until I did some searching. Argyle Park has articles on All Music Guide [1], Yahoo [2], and WindowsMedia.com [3]. The three combine to meet the central criteria " subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician/ensemble itself and reliable". One release on major indie label. There are several fan websites. Royalbroil T : C 20:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

- Comment - The Yahoo and WM bios are copies of the Allmusic profile, which is itself derived from a band press release. You might have an argument that this is one published source, but I don't think it amounts to multiple sources. If the short bio were more of an actual review, I might agree as to notability when combined with the indie label album. However, I think it's all still too thin, especially when combined with the fact that they only ever played one live show.--Kubigula (talk) 21:30, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- I have added another reliable source. Dan, the CowMan 03:44, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Keep - This article now meets "multiple non-trivial works" and points 4 and 5 of WP:MUSIC. Dan, the CowMan 03:44, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
