Native Deen

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Does not meet WP:NMUSIC. Lacks significant coverage in 3rd party sources. Of supplied references, all are broken links with the exception of a college newspaper article which does not mention this band at all. Not signed to a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels. RadioFan (talk) 21:32, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

also nominating the accompanying article on an album by this artist Deen You Know for the same reason.

Speedy keep - The band has received significant coverage from numerous independent, reliable sources, including The Washington Post, Fox News, Emel, CNN, The New York Times and BBC News therefore it passes WP:GNG. Tanbircdq (talk) 00:10, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep (no such thing as "speedy keep") - I think if we delete this, we'd need to delete vast swathes of similar marginally notable bands with some mention in the mainstream press. --gilgongo (talk) 12:10, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
