[edit] Nephew (band)

I'm very much a rookie in the enwiki deletion process, so bare with me and help me, please. :)

I've discovered, that the well-known danish band, Nephew (band), has been deleted due to some non-danish theories about the band. English wikipedia has an article about it's lead singer, Simon Kvamm, and both the danish and the german wikipedia has an article about the band. They do sing primarily in danish as to why they are not huge outside of Denmark, but they are very well known, and their record from 2004, USADSB, has had huge record sales. At the Danish Music Awards in 2005, the band won best album, best band, best rock album, best music video and best hit. The band website also has a complete english version now (which is one of the complaints in the deletion discussion).

I vote for undeletion, if the deleted article had any interesting content.

• Overturn and undelete - notability now established per WP:MUSIC; details above should be incorporated into article. Aquilina 15:50, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

• Misunderstanding The article which was deleted was NOT a Danish band, but a British band (the article was a substub and the UK Nephew didn't seem to meet WP:MUSIC). The Danish Nephew does meet WP:MUSIC by quite a large margin (awards, a platinum album, etc). Keep the old article deleted, and just make a new one about the Danish band. Nobody would object.

The new article would go under the same name, Nephew (band), and this would be all right with respect to this article name having an older version with a deletion process for a totally different article? As I could not see the contents of the old article, I just assumed it was about the fairly well-known danish band. Just to make sure, there is no current article about this danish band under some other name, correct? It does not appear so, but just to make sure. Otherwise, this deletion review is irrelevant. --Morten Barklund ^{[ talk / contribs ]} 16:37, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

There is no article on the band Nephew in the English wikipedia. Starting a new article at the same name would be fine, though my advice would be to throw a sentence or two on the new article's talk page explaining the situation with the old AfD, so some admin doesn't mistakenly delete it as a re-creation.
