[edit] Isidor
Delete nn band. Proposed a delete with {{prod}} but it was objected to. Only released 1 album. A Google on Isidor "Arnar Ingi Viðarson" -wikipedia yields 2 hits. --Bruce1ee 15:25, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. The album title, "Betty Takes A Ride," gets many more hits, most relevant, and a reasonable Google search turns up a significant array of references/commentary, well beyond the band's native Iceland. English language Google searches for non-English phrases are notoriously underperforming, and Wikipedia is not simply a tool for promoting corporate music. Monicasdude 15:36, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
Strong DeleteNeutral heres like 26 Googles (1 in wiki and 25 in Icleandic) and I dont think theyll be playing in Peoria real soon. [1] Defunkier 17:12, 3 March 2006 (UTC)- Delete. Article does not assert that subject meets any one criterion in WP:MUSIC. android79 17:59, 3 March 2006 (UTC)d

Keep per Monicasdude, they seem to have third party-interest [2]. Kappa 11:36, 6 March 2006 (UTC)- Comment like they claim, music critic from local newspaper Fréttablaðið, Árni Viðar Þórarinsson, one of Iceland´s most respected indie-music speculant, Eriko Murikami,japanese author with 0 other Googles. Thought stuff was supposed to be verifiable? Me bites tongue. Defunkier 13:06, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Stefán Ingi - not vanity, Iceland should be the exception to "small" country noterity in WP:MUSIC, as the music scene is that of a medium country.
I did ask if any of their songs have been played on the radio [3]. Maybe we'll get an answer in time? heh --Grocer 21:42, 6 March 2006 (UTC)Hm, there is a Bosnian wiki article on this too. Not sure what to make of that. --Grocer 21:53, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Their album did get reviewed in one [4] and probably both of the main Icelandic newspapers. They also played at a concert related to the Icelandic airwaves [5] and also at some other concerts that have been mentioned on national media [6]. But I don't feel able to offer an opinion on whether they are noteable enough to have an article here. Stefán Ingi 15:35, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
