The subject fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND. It's just too soon. Draftify as an option? Less Unless (talk) 20:36, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think I probably lean to draftify for now – I think it was quite a surprise that despite being formed on a high-profile TV reality show, the group's debut single has failed to make the chart at all in the UK. But I doubt the record company has given up on them, and I expect that it will be a case of sooner rather than later for this group to have a hit and more coverage.

Draftify there is definite potential in the sources given to date per GNG, but right now they don't meet NMUSIC. I think deleting the article would harbour more loss than gain, and I for one am dedicated to improving the article in draftspace. – DarkGlow • 16:14, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as they have won BBC music competition and have been on BBC, they check off a couple of boxes in WP:BAND criteria. Chelokabob (talk) 02:47, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A reality TV show to find a new band certainly does not pass criteria 8 or 9 of WP:BAND... this is not a major award on the scale of the Grammys or the Brits. And one other small point... they didn't win it, they came fourth. Richard3120 (talk) 14:26, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
