Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/All Caps (band)
It would seem that the most common rationale for keeping the All Caps article from the "Do Not Delete" !voters is that they are extensively covered by media outside the "mainstream". While this may or may not be true, the advantage that mainstream media has over, say, blogs or YouTube is that it is generally more reliable and trustworthy, due to its rigorous fact-checking and editorial oversight. We need to use only reliable, third-party sources on Wikipedia to make sure that what we are publishing is verifiably accurate. Anybody can edit, for example, Last.fm and alter it to say whatever they want it to, hence why we can't use http://www.last.fm/music/All+Caps to determine notability. Also, having over 26,000 YouTube subscribers doesn't in and of itself make a band notable, per . It should perhaps also be noted that a large number of the "Do Not Delete" !voters have made few or no contributions outside this AfD
