Non-notable band, only 95 hits on Google for "Black & White Jacksons". Does not meet WP:BAND requirements for notability. Wackymacs (talk ~ edits) 17:22, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

:Comment I don't think google hits on their own is a good guide to notability. Looking at the hits. I found 4 links that might establish notability, if the sources are reliable. One from DCist, which appears to be a blog, but seems to have an editorial team, and published by a company (not a personal blog, in other words): [http://dcist.com/2008/03/27/three_stars_bla.php]. 2 from the Washington City Paper music section, and blog respectively: [http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/display.php?id=34575], [http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/blackplasticbag/2008/07/11/black-white-jacksons-at-fort-reno/], and one from BrightestYoungThings, which seems to be a website about entertainment in Washington DC. The other hits seem to be mainly the usual blogs, myspaces pages, last.fm, and concert listings. Silverfish (talk) 20:29, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete – Just not there yet. However, they do show promise as shown here [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22Black+%26+White+Jacksons%22+band&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8]. I referenced and in lined sourced the piece, but feel they are just shy of inclusion. ShoesssS Talk 00:41, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
