The result was no consensus. After two close AFDs I'm opting for not relisting a second time and closing as no consensus. Instead of !voting, my own (admittedly quick) research using google.de indicate they very probably meet WP:BAND, and Michig's book sources pretty much clinched it §FreeRangeFrog^croak 00:06, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

AfD involved only 2 people, BenLinus1214 and Gaff, so ended in no consensus. J04n and Fixer23 also looked into the group's notability at WP:Articles for deletion/Funky Diamonds (album). Dawn Bard tagged this for notability. Does have an article in 2 other languages, but I wasn't sure that this meets WP:NBAND or WP:GNG. Has been tagged for notability for 7 years, so it would be very good to finally get this resolved. Boleyn (talk) 19:14, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Two major label albums, at least one of which was a hit in Japan it seems, some coverage here, here and here - could really do with German editors to bring the German WP article up to scratch as it seems probable that further coverage exists in German sources. --Michig (talk) 20:09, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per lack of a lasting impact. Longevitydude (talk) 01:12, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment-Unsure right now, the German article looks like it is notable but then it is deceiving when you look at the refs-only refs are to Youtube. Wgolf (talk) 02:46, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
