Delete - First of all, the nominator should say something beyond "not a notable album" and give some indication that he/she investigated what is truly missing from the article, because it is possible that its authors neglected to go the extra mile but the community could help. With that being said, I investigated and found that the album cannot quite satisfy WP:NALBUMS, especially criteria #1: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published..." The album has a few trivial mentions in music magazines but I can find nothing beyond that, so it appears that there is not enough for a WP article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:56, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep – I've add content including reviews and references. Three tracks (the singles) were placed on high rotation on national radio stations. Passes WP:ALBUMS#1 and #6.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 21:11, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- The above voter added some sources but my own vote above will not change. Of the current sources in the article, the most robust are about the band's overall history or are even reviews of different albums, and merely mention the existence of 8 Miles High. So we now have sources to verify that this album exists, but see WP:EXIST. Beyond existing, the item has to have some notability as an entity that has been discussed in the media in its own right. The sources being used to support this album article would actually be more relevant for the band's article, and the album itself is still lacking in its own notability. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 17:44, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Great, we have proven the EP existed but that alone has never been justification to keep an article. The success of the singles are a seperate concern, irrelevant to this topic.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 22:09, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
