Contested PROD. PROD reason by John from Idegon was "Only source is a fan page. I can find a few mentions in local media but nithing that shows notability in WP:BEFORE. Clearly fails WP:ORG. WP:NOTEVERYTHING likely also applies." I agree. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:32, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - see above. Muboshgu, can you point me to the undelete request? John from Idegon (talk) 19:42, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@John from Idegon: Here is the WP:REFUND request. —C.Fred (talk) 19:45, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Thanks. I was just about to remove that request as I had found it too. John from Idegon (talk) 19:48, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A long established drum and bugle corps which has consistently won/placed highly in many competitions at regional and national levels (such as Drum Corps Associates Open Class World Champions) in a field that appears to have its own culture.Djflem (talk) 18:57, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep multiple independent third party feature articles in various news sources show a clear pass of the general notability guideline and I can see no policy violation nor any other reason to make an exception. Specifically, WP:ORG calls attention to anything that leads to "advertising and promotion" and that's clearly not the case here--plus it is subordinate to WP:GNG. Also, I don't see any section or part of WP:NOTEVERYTHING that would apply here.--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:18, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources already in the article so there is no need for deletion in policy terms imv Atlantic306 (talk) 22:20, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep While I have nominated other such groups for deletion, the sources here available in the article satisfy the notability standard. Alansohn (talk) 05:26, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep First I must say that I have a conflict of interest on this issue. I believe that this article shows adequate notability based on the multiple independent sources covering this topic. MartiniHoff (talk) 15:19, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
