Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carrot Top Records (2nd nomination)
Contra to {{u|78.26}}, we are not talking about the definition of wikt:notability|notability one might find on Wiktionary, but the specific Wikipedia definition of |notability. Nothing the subject is or does confers notability in that regard. One thing, and one thing only, confers it&mdash;the availability of substantial amounts of reference material written about the subject (''directly'' about the subject, not about something affiliated with the subject) by sources that are |reliable and independent of the subject. No number of name drops or blurbs in such sources confers notability in that regard, nor does "influence" or anything else. I couldn't find that type of reference material before (hence the previous nomination), and I still see no reason to believe it exists now. As to "NMUSIC #5", firstly, this is notability criteria for a band (per |the guideline: "musicians or ensembles"), not a label, so that doesn't apply here as the article is not about a band. NMUSIC #5 also specifically references ''major'' record labels with a specific pointer to the article about major labels. This label is not listed there, nor can I find any reference indicating that it is considered a major label and should be on that list. All that aside, even if it did meet that SNG, meeting an SNG confers a presumption of notability, but that is a rebuttable presumption if the references can be shown to in fact not be out there (the guideline even says "may be notable" if they meet such a criterion). In this case, they are, to the best of my ability to find, not in existence
