[edit] LaPret

LaPret (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Has no reliable sources explaining notability. Speedily deleted several times as non-notable, so let's get AfD opinion on this. See also [1] and [2], which are a part of the same persistent advertising effort. I'm half tempted to tag this {{db-author}} as the original author created this article with {{db-band}} tag in place (good old scam: tag with speedy delete, wait a few minutes so recent changes patrollers think it has been taken care of, then remove the deletion tag.)

• Speedy Delete: Deleted before, and is not notable. Might be notable in the future, but not now. As only mark of notability is part of Profound Intent, which has been deleted by AfD, this article should be speedied as well. --Durin 18:28, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete Isn't there a way to prevent this from being recreated? Or block the creator for being naughty? Bobanny 19:25, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as it's not yet a suitable subject for wikipedia. Mr. Berry 23:31, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete as it fails WP:MUSIC. Zimbardo Cookie Experiment 07:03, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
• CommentLets play by all the rules here, no disrespect but, WP:MUSIC says "Important note: Failing to satisfy the notability guidelines is not a criterion for speedy deletion.". So if you're going to talk about deleting the article it should not be for a speedy deletion. However, this person is notable.70.108.190.181 15:37, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

  Notable? With no solo releases and only a single release as part of Profound Intent? No, sorry. As I've said all along, not notable now. Maybe in the future. In the meantime, this act lacks notability above the common garage band and the repeated attemtps at forcing an article onto Wikipedia about LaPret and Profound Intent are nothing more than advertising. If LaPret and Profound Intent are notable, they don't need to create the article themselves. Somebody else will. --Durin 17:31, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
