Fails WP:BAND and WP:MUSICBIO. No entries Discogs, Spotify nor Napster. Only 289 listeners on Soundcloud. Simply not notable. scope_creep (talk) 20:59, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

- Comment S4U do have a presence on Spotify, [https://open.spotify.com/album/6TIsCFUp4qEklW6D5U5lAw here's their EP] on the service. Furthermore, SoundCloud streams aren't a good gauge of importance nor notability because some bands point to it more than others, you can be utterly non-notable with tens of thousands or concrete notable with ten. Reliable sources for bands would be newspapers, books, established magazines and websites, national radio and television coverage, and so on. KaisaL (talk) 04:02, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Per WP:NOTNOW. Despite my comment above, I don't think S4U meet the threshold yet, but that could change within years, maybe even months. The initially coverage at The 405 and Noisey is promising, and they also premiered a song at Clash Magazine. However, this is common for countless new bands and the coverage isn't sustained nor exactly lead material. Also, the article creator Lucian Tackle seems like a conflict of interest case because Google searches point me to Sälen, who are associated with S4U, and a Facebook account that's only a fan of S4U. Maybe management or a band member's alias, but either way there's likely some degree of that going on. KaisaL (talk) 04:09, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
