:The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. Despite having been listed for a month, the best sources found are, at best, insufficient to reach GNG (a review and an incidental mention in an article on a festival where they performed). — Coren (talk) 22:49, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

  • Weak delete. Probably falls short of being sufficiently significant for an encyclopedia article. I did find a few news items: [http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/news_press/access/1690412301.html?FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Jan+23%2C+2009&author=CHARLES+RUNNELLS&pub=The+News+Press&desc=6th+Celtic+festival+to+cut+wide+swath&pqatl=google The News Press], [http://www.seminolechronicle.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2009/01/21/4977b9c52a2c3 Seminole Chronicle], [http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=VP&p_theme=vp&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=1296B76C409B22D8&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM Virginian-Pilot]. --Michig (talk) 17:19, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete. Even the refs above aren't really that helpful since the mere mention shown is photo captioning in at least one of them. Notability requires significant coverage and I've yet to see any. Niteshift36 (talk) 13:35, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete This subject about a Scottish band fails WP:GNG for significant coverage in reliable sources. After all, it is already tagged with the WP:N notice, which this article also fails. I did, however, run into a few items, as did {{user|Michig}} but none of which will ensure that the article passes WP:GNG and WP:N: [http://www.ifaonline.co.uk/ifaonline/news/2222757/fsa-bans-jailed-adviser-after-gbp150k-granny-fraud IFA Online], [http://www.seminolechronicle.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2009/01/21/4977b9c52a2c3 Seminole Chronicle], and [http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/news_press/access/1690412301.html?FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Jan+23%2C+2009&author=CHARLES+RUNNELLS&pub=The+News+Press&desc=6th+Celtic+festival+to+cut+wide+swath&pqatl=google The News Press]. That's all generally, though. TBrandley 16:28, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment I note you have made an absolutely unique argument I have never heard before: Delete because it is already tagged with a Notability tag. In other words, some one person has doubted notability, which is proof we should delete it. Of course if an article fails notability it will be deleted, but that's what we are here to determine. DGG ( talk ) 01:07, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep They seem to be regulars on the Highland Games circuit in Scotland and North America and this generates regular coverage in the press. I have added a citation of that sort plus an album review. The coverage I've seen is not especially deep but seems wide enough to establish notability. Warden (talk) 10:53, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep After the two inline citations added by Warden (talk), this band is documented well enough to establish notability, and the article should be kept. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:25, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep I agree that Warden's additions [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Albannach&diff=526316861&oldid=526159224] prove its notable. I wonder specifically what awards their bagpipe guy won. Dream Focus 16:10, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep Article seems okay.--Auric 21:45, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
