It was recently posted on the bands Facebook wall page that they were looking to find someone to build them a wikipedia page. I emailed them as they requested and they are okay with the building of the page.

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedy deleted because Hundredth has released two or more albums on a major label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are notable).Hundredth has also been a significant musical influence on a musician or composer that qualifies for the above list. I have been given the majority of the information by the band that I am editing, as well as various other sites that have the appropriate information that I have written on this page.

That's the reason why I'm removing the tag. There's an assertion of significance in the article, with the release of two (well, actual release of one and imminent release of the second) albums on an independent label that appears to qualify as major. That said, there are still some fatal flaws in the article right now:

1. The only independent source is an interview with the band
2. There is a conflict of interest situation, as it appears that the article was solicited by the band and created with assistance of the band

Without improvement, the article could be nominated for a deletion discussion per WP:Articles for deletion. —C.Fred (talk) 13:43, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Actually, what's asserted above is not true. The band has not released a second album yet, and I know from experience that assuming that it will be released isn't wise. Albums get canceled or changed constantly. Also, it needs to be shown that Mediaskare Records is "one of the more important indie labels". For one thing, I'm not seeing that other acts signed to that label are notable. -- Atama頭 19:03, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
