Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yellow Plastic Bucket
While the http://jam.canoe.com/Music/Pop_Encyclopedia/Y/Yellow_Plastic_Bucket.html Jam "Pop Music Encyclopedia" link does make some vague claims of significance that might count for something if they could be ''quantified'' properly, vague claims like "harvested enthusiastic critical response from a number of influential publications" and "garnered a significant amount of College radio airplay" and "included in syndicated radio programs" don't satisfy  in the absence of firm sources demonstrating which ''specific'' "influential publications" or which ''specific'' "syndicated radio programs" were involved — these are ''exactly'' the kind of puffed-up claims that we ''routinely'' see in articles about self-promoting wannabes who don't actually have any genuinely strong evidence of notability to offer. (Frex, for current bands the "influential publications" often turn out to be published to Blogspot and the "syndicated radio programs" often turn out to be podcasts — and while those didn't exist in the 1990s per se, the 1990s ''did'' have zines and tape trading networks that could ''also'' be PR-massaged into unnamed "influential publications" and unnamed "syndicated radio programs".)On a ProQuest search, further, I got just eight hits for "yellow plastic bucket", ''all'' of which were referring to water receptacles that happened to be coloured yellow and made of plastic, and ''none'' of which were referring to a band. So, yeah, none of this meets NMUSIC as things stand — ''especially'' since even the poor references we ''do'' have just credit them with two ''singles'', but ''zero'' full-length albums, and even the unreliable fansite quotes reviews in ''zines'', not reviews in publications like ''Rolling Stone'' or ''Spin'' or ''Exclaim!'' that would actually count for something. Sure, the article could be recreated in the future if somebody can find ''good'' sourcing that ''properly'' supports notability — but on the evidence of what we've got so far I won't exactly hold my breath
