Speedy contested website. If this is deleted, Drum Workshop should get listed for AFD as well. delete UtherSRG (talk) 08:30, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment If this article is kept it needs its original history restored to preserve attribution, otherwise its a violation of our licensing policies. VernoWhitney (talk) 12:32, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- No harm restoring the history now, so I've done so. If this gets deleted, then the whole history will be deleted again. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:08, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. VernoWhitney (talk) 13:28, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Now that the licensing issues are out of the way and I've had time to review the article, Delete Fails WP:N and WP:WEB. Most of the sources used in the article are press releases and so cannot be used to establish notability. Of the remaining sources, Musician's Hut doesn't discuss Drum Channel at all (being about Drum Workshop, and as far as I can tell also being the equivalent of a press release considering how many sales sites it is mirrored on) and The Paradiddler and Rush Is A Band do not provide what I would consider significant coverage, as they are primarily focused on what Drum Channel happens to be streaming and not the website/service itself.
