declined speedy. As far as I can tell, this acapella group does not go anywhere near the criteria for WP:band. There is a very small and mainly self-referential presence on the web. The speedy was contested by an author (who subsequentally blanked the page). His argument, without specifing notability, was that other Princeton groups have an article. I am not an American but I realise that Princeton and other Ivy League universities have an exceptional place in american society. So my question is; Are all Ivy League clubs and societies notable enough to have a separate article? Porturology (talk) 23:23, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Does not pass WP:BAND. Also, the article seems to have a POV issue, and the only reference is not a secondary source. I can find no notability of the group. In fact, I'm not sure the other acapella groups meet the requirements as of right now, because there are numerous unsourced claims that have not been addressed, seeing as the only references again, are not secondary.

• Delete, fails notability per WP:MUSIC. Searching pulls up no reliable, third-party, sources.  Esradekan Gibb  ^"Talk" 00:54, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: A choir that's around for 25 years must have had some coverage, at least when touring foreign countries. They took part in some, eh, see for yourself: [1] - and, ehm, yes: [2]. --Avant-garde a clue-hexaChord² 15:05, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
