Insufficient notability for this project, apparently fails WP:BAND. Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 00:22, 10 March 2014 (UTC) reply

Comments by article creator:

• "Do Not Delete" There is plenty evidence of notability. This page has multiple links to many notable figures on wikipedia. Voices of Extreme has had much exposure with many notable bands and people. It is not an advertisement , it is an article on a notable band. For example, Red Lamb, Nicko McBrain, Iron Maiden, Dan Spitz, Anthrax, Godsmack, Disturbed, Alice in Chains, Buckcherry, and the Dropkick Murphys. Here are some references :

You could put the current article text on your userpage, so if they do become notable, you can retrieve your work so far. D ralwi k| ^{Have a Chat} 23:21, 10 March 2014 (UTC) reply

• Delete - I'm not sure this meets notability guidelines. Bali88 ( talk) 01:29, 10 March 2014 (UTC) reply
• Delete No evidence of notability. See WP:BAND. Sources fail WP:RS as affiliated and or trivial. A Google turned up mostly promotional hits with a few trivial non-RS stuff on the side. - Ad Orientem ( talk) 03:15, 10 March 2014 (UTC) reply
• Delete. If their record label isn't notable enough for an article and none of their opening gigs bear mention in newspapers or magazines somewhere, then they don't meet WP:BAND. D ralwi k| ^{Have a Chat} 23:21, 10 March 2014 (UTC) reply
• Delete - This Noisecreep article [1] offers the best in terms of coverage I could find; not convinced there is enough material in additional reliable sources to satisfy WP:GNG or WP:BAND.  Gong  show 00:48, 11 March 2014 (UTC) reply
• Do not delete - I listed a bunch of websites and articles that have Voices of Extreme discussed and interviewed multiple times. I do not understand why this article does not meet the notability guidelines. Their album, Hypocrite was produced by famous guitar play Dan Spitz of the famous band Anthrax. Don Chaffin the lead singer of Voices of Extreme is also the lead vocalist for the band Red Lamb who is listed in your encyclopedia. Dan Spitz and Anthrax are also listed in your encyclopedia. We would like to know what other information you need to resolve this issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gdonadio04 ( talk • contribs) 16:39, 13 March 2014 (UTC) reply

Negating duplicate vote by Gdonadio04. Please feel free to comment as often as you like in an AfD discussion, but only one vote is allowed. Best regards... - Ad Orientem ( talk) 19:31, 13 March 2014 (UTC) reply

The fact that their producer and/or some of their members are notable on their own doesn't add up to notability for the band itself. It may be more appropriate at this point in time to redirect to one of their pages and have a section containing all this info on that page. Can you prove notability in terms of album sales? That might help things. :-) Bali88 ( talk) 01:09, 14 March 2014 (UTC) reply

- Yes I understand what you are saying but I don't think wikipedia is dependent on album sales. These gentlemen are very experienced for the last 20 years. They are working on their third album now. There's plenty of website articles that highlight Voices of Extreme. For example : http://www.bravewords.com/news/207813 , http://www.dangerdog.com/2010-music-reviews/voices-of-extreme-break-the-silence-review.php#.UyNMGnlM7wJ , http://www.metalville.de/voices-of-extreme.html , http://noisecreep.com/voices-of-extreme-break-the-silence-song/ , http://rockrevoltmagazine.com/voices-of-extreme-interview-videopremiere/ , http://ytsejam.com/2010/08/interview-with-voices-of-extreme-vocalist-don-chaffin/ , http://www.musicnewsnashville.com/voices-extreme-vox-new-album-break-silence-today/ , http://www.sleazeroxx.com/bands/voicesofextreme/breakthesilence.shtml , http://heavymetal.about.com/b/2013/11/09/5-questions-with-voices-of-extreme-2.htm , http://www.seaoftranquility.org/reviews.php?op=showcontent&id=9439 , http://punkworldviews.com/top-10-projectsperformances-voices-of-extreme/ , http://flashwounds.com/2013/10/03/voices-of-extreme-vox-releases-new-lyric-video-for-numb-via-rock-revolt-magazine/ , http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/iron-maiden-drummer-to-appear-at-voices-of-extreme-show-in-massachusetts-tonight/ , http://targetaudiencemagazine.com/interview-with-don-chaffin-of-v-o-x/ , http://www.dangerdog.com/2010-music-reviews/voices-of-extreme-break-the-silence-review.php#.UyNPCnlM7wI . If you could take a moment to review those links i'm sure it will clarify things. In addition, playing with notable people is what makes other people notable, I don't know how else you would describe someone as notable. They have a lot of exposure with bands like Alice in Chains, Disturbed, Buckcherry, the Dropkick Murphy's....and many others. Furthermore, they do have their albums and songs selling online : http://www.amazon.com/Hypocrite/dp/B0029RUWTG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1377046120&sr=8-2&keywords=voices+of+extreme+hypocrite , https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/hypocrite/id316442420. Thank you, please let me know if you need any further clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.77.171.254 ( talk) 18:50, 14 March 2014 (UTC) reply
