Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The University of Chicago Band
per nom.  I agree with nom's characterization of  - and beyond that, when the article's creator says "Our band ... has managed to stay out of the news spotlight. We are small and don't do anything stupid to attract the news" ... um, that's pretty much an assertion of NON-notability.  To address Edison's comments, first off, upon what basis does he claim that Jacobs Band Monthly satisfies  or that this band is discussed in "significant detail" in it?  Secondly, it's scarcely a stretch that a university band was considered a factor in student life, but that measure of ubiquity is exactly why features common to most schools are ''not'' accorded automatic notability passes: how many student union articles pass at AfD?  Finally,  requires not that sources ''may'' exist, or that with sufficient digging people hope they turn up: it requires that sources are verified as existing.  I have no problem with the article being userfied pending that, but an article can't survive in mainspace without them
