Deletion of The Yuppie Pricks

Comment: I don't believe the linked articles support notability. The focus of the Wired article is on SXSW torrents and mentions the band as an example. The Austin Chronicle is Austin's free rag that often does stories on "up and coming" small local bands, the vast majority of which are not notable. The other articles were university papers that don't contribute to notability per .  —Preceding Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned comment added by

Comment: Oh, please. Enough with the "Wikipedia will only be for the corporate fat cat bands" melodrama, especially from a user who by all accounts of his edit history has a vested interest in this band. The  guidelines are broad enough to easily encompass small, independent bands, as long as they have received enough substantive coverage by independent sources to be verifiable. My objections to this article were that it was poorly sourced, the references that were given were all either to non-independent sources or to articles with the most minor of mentions, and that the article suffered many  problems due to its lack of notability. As far as your "basic human laziness" comment, a reader of a Wikipedia article shouldn't have to search high and low for verifiable reference for assertions made in the article, especially for a current culture piece. I DID verify the references that I could at the time I commented, and none of them met the guidelines for notability. I'd also invite you to look at a history of the article at the time it was proposed for deletion. Given that, I would say this deletion discussion has done a great job towards drastically improving the quality of this article - specific props to
