The result of the debate was Keep. Disambiguation sounds like a good idea, if someone wants to do it. --Tony Sidaway^Talk 07:47, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

The B-Sides

Non-notable vanity page. Chairboy 04:49, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

• • • WAITING The facts of this band are changing by the minute, now it says they formed in 2001 see page history. If they are notable I'll change to a keep. Hamster Sandwich 05:47, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Been around for yrs, and still no label has signed them? --Madchester 05:24, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

Could you guys take it a bit easy on me. It's my first time working with this and I admit I was nervous at first. We all make minor typos at times. Especially when we're nervous. User:Pythagoreanman 2:14 AM EDT July 21st 2005

• Comment. All Music Guide has records of a band called The B-Sides who have released albums and EP's [1]. However it isn't the same band as listed in the article and features a former member of the Squirrel Nut Zippers. I will rewrite this article this evening mentioning the original subject at the bottom of the article unless evidence can be shown under WP:MUSIC guidelines that they warrant an article on their own.

• Comment. I guess you guys win. You're missing out on an awesome band. Too bad this site is full of bureaucracy.
  • Comment If you can provide some verifiable evidence that this band is notable, and not just a local phenominon, you could probably get your inclusion. So far you have 2 votes to delete, One on the fence (me) and a kind offer of assistance from Capitalroadstar. I think you're either blowing smoke, or not to confident in the actual nescessity of your articles inclusion. Be Bold Your user page is new, and I can tell you as a new Wiki user myself that the onus here is to get articles included, not turfed out. As long as this "awesome band" should be of general interest to a more or less worldwide audience, write about them. If they have members from previously notable bands, probably a good sign. If they have toured internationally, even better. Have they released music on a format other than CDR? More and more interesting. I hope that my comment is takken in the spirit in which it is offered; as a person trying to help another person. Good luck Pythagoreanman! Hamster Sandwich 08:21, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• I have rewritten the article as promised. Keep. Capitalistroadster 09:13, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
  • • Keep Good work Capitalistroadster, but i think this is a completely different band than the one originally described in the first draft of this article. I vote keep because they seem somewhat notable, might link with other chapel hill bands. Hamster Sandwich 09:29, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Thorns Among Our Leaves 17:00, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• Weak Keep. I count three different bands all called the B-Sides. I'm not sure any single one is above my minimum level of notability, but combined they are. If nothing else, the article can untangle the name confusion. Still needs work, but has potential for being encyclopedic. --A D Monroe III 19:08, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• Improvement?. Why not add all three bands too the list and order formed and that type? like AD Monroe III said, to sort out the confusion?
