The Peanut Butter Conspiracy Is Spreading

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non notable album by barely notable group. Most of the article is unsourced or poorly sourced CrazyAces489 (talk) 14:56, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Are you serious? The album charted nationally and had a charting single. Those always pass for notability and it's poorly referenced because you keep removing reliable references. TheGracefulSlick (talk)

Actually, scratch that, it is referenced considerably along with it being notable. Perhaps after this, the user can go back to improving their articles? TheGracefulSlick (talk)

Keep Glen Campbell's involvement is enough to make it notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LynnWysong (talk • contribs)
Keep per TheGracefulSlick, easily passes WP:NALBUM. Dai Pritchard (talk) 18:42, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP:There appears to be nothing wrong with the article. It is well-written and well-sourced. Therefore, it should definitively not be deleted. We should view reliable articles covering specialty musical acts from the distant past as something to protect, not to destroy. I oppose any attempted deletion of this article. This "deletionist" frenzy needs to stop. Garagepunk66 (talk) 01:42, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The band themselves were definitely notable in the late 1960s as I recall - in the UK initially because one of their songs was included on the first Rock Machine sampler. It is a perennial problem for Wikipedia that topics that were newsworthy in the decades prior to the internet have far more ephemeral sourcing than is expected for contemporary topics. User:TheGracefulSlick has done well to find reliable sources that document this album and I have no doubt they establish its notability per WP:NALBUM #2 as it charted on the Billboard-200. --RexxS (talk) 22:19, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Per RexxS. Also this AfD another example of WP's problem with recentism. Montanabw ^(talk) 23:48, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
