No reliable secondary sources to establish notability. Passed previous AfD in 2007 because it was "heading towards notability... ...at least for now" but the label does not appear to have garnered the coverage that was expected. Labels do not inherit notability from their artists. Explodicle (T/C) 16:20, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Added sources. It appears notable to me. Silverseren^C 02:13, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Which one of those discusses the label itself in detail? --Explodicle (T/C) 02:47, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:N: lack of significant coverage in reliable independent sources. I have reviewed the sources Silver Seren has added but they fall short. They are all coverage for bands or artists on the label, but not for the label. Many do not even mention Dronedisco in passing. Few are reliable or independent, and none are significant. Note per WP:NOTINHERITED that notability for bands or albums produced by Dronedisco does not demonstrate that Dronedisco itself is notable. - DustFormsWords (talk) 02:12, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - fails WP:GNG. I was also unable to find any sources specifically covering the label, and my search included the ProQuest, EBSCOhost, and InfoTrac databases (plus others). --Darkwind (talk) 01:13, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. The distinction drawn above between the sources about the artists rather than the label is important. Unless the label receives significant coverage in reliable sources - rather than incidental mentions - it is not notable. --Mkativerata (talk) 18:49, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Since most of the sourcing seems to be either about Burning Star Core or the writer himself, would it be better to rename or redirect and create other articles for these then, which deleting this one? Silverseren^C 21:47, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• I don't think we should just rename (since the article is about the label) or redirect to what's currently a redlink. Would you be OK with copying this to your userspace while you write an article on either C. Spencer Yeh or Burning Star Core? If the AfD closes before you read this, you can still get a copy. --Explodicle (T/C) 14:29, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I copied it over to my Sandbox. Hey, maybe i'll be able to submit it to DYK when i'm done, that would be nice. Silverseren^C 17:51, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
