MediaStream Records

Template:La (delete) – (View log)

Contested prod. Seemingly non-notable record label. Article creator appears to be the company founder. Delete MikeWazowski (talk) 06:24, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

• Delete - There are only two links on that page to external sites that aren't pages belonging to MediaStream or its subordinate groups, and of those two, neither of them contains the word "MediaStream" at all. Most of the corporate links are to MySpace pages. No third-party coverage, non-notable. Brilliant Pebble (talk) 07:40, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, fails notability per WP:CORP, definite WP:COI.  Esradekan Gibb  ^"Talk" 07:55, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. and Esradekan. tomasz. 13:50, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - I think this article has enough resources, i mean, if you look at some of the MySpaces, the MediaStream name is set as the artist's label, for example Haffi Haff's MySpace and the George Focus MySpace so i think you should give them a chance and let them improve they're article in the upcoming weeks like they suggested. At least that's my comment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.157.232.216 (talk) 03:54, 14 July 2008
  • This IP editor has only one edit (this one) and is using an IP from Iceland, per RIPE Network Coordination Centre. Brilliant Pebble (talk) 04:19, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
  • Note that myspace is rarely, if ever, acceptable as a source. tomasz. 10:59, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - MediaStream Records is a real record label and we are working our ass of to finish contracts with Disney stars, organizing a 3 day music festival in iceland, signing and working with artists and producers in Sweden and doing all sorts of things. We will update the article's references soon but because up until now, we haven't mentioned the label in any interviews or any media coverage (there are interviews where a record label is mentioned but they are all in icelandic and the name MediaStream Records was never mentioned). I know the article has a huge lack of references and i don't think i will be able to change that today but that will all be taken care of within the next few weeks.

• Note that WP is supposed to be about documenting already-happened notable events (or companies), not about informing people about new start-ups or helping people achieve wider fame. The label will need reliable sources about itself that already exist in order to be in with any chance of staying. tomasz. 10:56, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

• Delete - inadequate sources, not notable. —D. Monack | talk 19:34, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - Article fails WP:CORP per Steinarj's own summary when removing the prod: "we have to be on wikipedia for people to be able to see what our company is about" — Wikipedia isn't for organizations who are so non-notable that lack of a Wikipedia entry is a major problem. "Wikipedia is not ... a resource for conducting business"; "Wikipedia is not your web host". Wikipedia is for topics that are already verifiably notable to established reliable sources, not for ones that really, really, really "will be" something really, really, really soon. --Closeapple (talk) 12:10, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
