I cannot find any sources on this band. Closest thing to a source is a blog music review. I tried to PROD the page, but the creator came back from the catacombs to remove the tag, then add a deprecated source. Roasted (talk) 16:23, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

- I'm was in the band and am NOT a wiki expert. I emerged from the catacombs when I read there was an issue. I discovered that discogs is deprecated (wiki didn't say which source was a problem & it wasn't in the past), so I removed that. I'm at a loss to understand why the page is not acceptable. Are you suggesting the band didn't exist? That three records on Polydor & that our drummer Titch subsequently selling millions of records with Living in a Box doesn't make it worthy of inclusion? There are dozens of entries that seem to me equally "insignificant" but still part of the music history of the UK. Robinsonnick (talk) 18:10, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Delete could not find any sources with significant coverage of this band and it doesn't look like they ever charted, does not meet WP:BAND. Orange sticker (talk) 12:20, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - The band included some members that went on to bigger things later, but that does not make the band itself notable per WP:INHERITED. They had few accomplishments of their own, and I can find no reliable media coverage, even via a Google Books search because they were a pre-internet band. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 19:50, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - The article was a COI creation by a band member; it has been unsourced since 2013. I'm not finding anything to substantiate its notability in a BEFORE search that could be used to improve the article. The band is not notable per WP criteria as it has not been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works in reliable sources that are reliable, that are not self-published nor user-submitted, and are fully independent of the musician or band itself.
