This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... This article passes GNG because their music has been reviewed four times by reliable publications in the Christian music industry.-- The Cross Bearer ( talk)

  • I could even create an album article, for the Black & White release, so it makes this even or notable. The Cross Bearer ( talk) 08:56, 24 June 2015 (UTC) reply
  • @ KH-1:, I've declined the speedy since the reviews are just enough to assert some notability. That said, I am concerned that there's no verifiable editorial oversight at Indie Vision Music's website. I can see where it's certainly a popular website but this doesn't always mean that a site would be considered a RS per Wikipedia's guidelines. Cross Rhythms has the same issue, although Down the Line does have an editorial board so that looks to be OK. I'd like to see some stronger sources here since it's still possible that KH-1 could take this to AfD. The Cross Bearer, I'd wait on an article for the album since that looks to be their main source of notability/sourcing for the time being and as such, runs the risk of someone suggesting that the album article be merged into the main article. That and also there's still concerns over the sources. If this does go to AfD it'll be under a lot of scrutiny and the sourcing needs to be pretty strong. Offhand a quick look brings up this article from the Sun Gazette, which is a decent start. It's an interview, which tends to be depreciated by many editors, but it's still a start.

@ Tokyogirl79:: IVM does have editorial oversight, and so does Cross Rhythms. As The Cross Bearer mentioned, Cross Rhythms in particular is the largest Christian radio outlet in the UK. It was even a print magazine at one point. It absolutely has a reliable editorial board. I did volunteer work for them a few years ago, and can personally vouch that Cross Rhythms checks its content for accuracy.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me | See what I have done) 00:53, 25 June 2015 (UTC) reply

Notability

I do not consider there is "Significant coverage" of this band, two reviews is hardly that! And using Facebook as a reference is really scraping the barrel! Theroadislong ( talk) 08:00, 28 June 2015 (UTC) reply

Try four reviews. I'd call it notability. The Cross Bearer ( talk) 08:11, 28 June 2015 (UTC) reply
