Dutch nu-metal band. They played in the "10th band-marathon organized by Popei" a couple of weeks ago. Google test fails. No albums. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 12:56, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep.I'm also from Holland, just saw them at a concert. I think they Rock. I'm happy that i was able to remember the weird name and was just looking for some info. I see that there isnt much information about them yet, but i think they earn a place on Wikipedia. I hope for them that they will reach the dutch charts very soon (i heared they are busy with an album right now). John M

      • Yeah? So what? Do i have to wait a few days before i'm allowed to post things? Yes i signed up for an account to join this discussion, because i think you guys should not delete this entry. -- John M
        • The reason I pointed it out is because it's very common for users who want to sway the vote their way to create multiple sockpuppet accounts in order to make it appear that lots of people are saying the same thing. Votes by new users are therefore normally discounted from the vote if the admin making the final decision believes they are not a genuine user. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 20:02, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
          • So my vote doesnt count just because i just registered myself? I think there are many things on Wikipedia most of the users dont know about or things they dont and/or will not understand. You now got a few votes from some people who mentioned this topic. And dont know this band. Maybe (lots of) other users do, but didnt mention this discussion. If i'll take a look at the Wikipedia database i'll find many things i dont know about. But that isnt a reason for me to say that the have to be deleted. -- John M
            • Only if the admin making the final decision believes [you] are not a genuine user (direct quote). It helps in online discussions if you actually read what the other person has written before responding. And note Tony's reasons for suggesting that the article should be deleted - he has checked it out on the internet first of all and has found that, in his opinion, the band is not notable enough for this particular encyclopedia. That doesn't mean that we're trying to wipe it off the Internet altogether, just one website out of the dozens that your band could possibly be listed on. That might put some context on this discussion. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 04:25, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. They've been contacted by the Pinkpop organisation to play at Pinkpop (a large music event in the Netherlands) next year, so after that they will probably have gained popularity, justifying a place at Wikipedia. Aapje 12:01, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep. I am Dutch as well. I searched with google, dutch address (www.google.nl). Search for '51 One-legged Bitches in a Row', and you'll see sites do mention them. Costermans 11:50, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Yes they are. I see only 3 distinct references and they all refer solely to the band's appearance at the December 11 Bandmarathon PopEi. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 12:07, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep. Notable enough—Trevor Caira 15:05, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • No albums? They don't seem notable to me. Delete. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 15:14, Dec 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Quite non-notable, garage band vanity. It's highly unlikely someone who doesn't already know who they are will come here looking for information about them. [[User:Livajo|Ливай | ]] 15:44, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete as they have yet to establish any sort of notability nor have they released anything. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 16:50, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete non-notable just yet. Cdc 17:01, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Am Dutch, can't say I heard of them. No albums seems non-notable, maybe a few singles? [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 21:12, Dec 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, this cloggie hasn't heard of them either. --fvw* 03:16, 2004 Dec 22 (UTC)
  • Delete, no albums, no videos, no notability... Alphax (talk) 04:12, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)
  • Conditional keep. That article is begging for a cleanup, and without one, it serves no usefulness, and should be deleted. Brother Dysk 16:14, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, but what a name! hfool 23:28, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • The Garage Band Gremlin strikes again! Delete. Edeans 23:54, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: promo, nonnotable. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:20, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Perhaps when they actually record something they could have an article. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 18:24, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unless you are The Quarrymen, you don't get an article until you release an album. Gamaliel 21:37, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
