Atlas Strategic, Rapture, Ye Minions!

The band itself may not be particularly notable; however, due to Dan Boeckner's presence, it deserves to stay. Boeckner is musically significant as part of the recent, critically-acclaimed "Indie" band Wolf Parade, and thus a chronicle of his previous musical exploits demands relevance.

Came across this article when investigating an unsourced image. This article has been speedied many times before under g12, a7, etc. I think we should run a proper AfD to decide whether this band is notable. Also nominating the band's first album for which "Only 500 copies were made". Looks like a NN band to me. My vote is to delete Aksi_great (talk) 05:34, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep, because recreations suggest a determined audience who will work to keep it and hopefully improve it. --Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? 16:43, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? (talk · contribs) just opined "strong keep" in 27 AFD discussions over a period of 35 minutes, several times with clearly disruptive rationales. Uncle G 16:48, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- A small number of dedicated fans is not a sign of notability if they're that obscure. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 20:27, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep, firstly because look at what Dan Boeckner has done since his time leading Atlas Strategic. He's in one of the most notable indie bands, Wolf Parade. Also, the note of only 500 copies being made being a bad thing, that just means the label wasn't able to print more. The only time one has ever shown up on ebay it went for 75 USD, tell that doesn't add some notability. To back that up Rapute, Ye Minions! on eBay going for 75. Also the stir that the band makes, or the page on last.fm, it seems much larger than many other bands who have articles here. I'll find those bands if you would like.
