Promotional article for a webseries of suspect notability. References are for the bands who played, not the webseries itself. Little coverage found in independent reliable sources. MikeWazowski (talk) 22:04, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

• Keep: The series is recognized by music writers at Paste Magazine, Gorilla vs. Bear, Stereogum, IFC, and the Philadelphia Inquirer. The "flagged" comment says that few reliable, independent sources exist, but I find that not to be the case. A simple web search will bring such articles to light.

• Keep Shaking Through has almost 70 videos uploaded to Vimeo, some of which have over 15,000 views. As the series is only in its second year of operation, these numbers will surely consider to grow.

• Delete Only two of the references that are not by the article's subject or its parent company actually mention it. One is the very definition of a trivial mention. The other is an article just about the "Shaking Through" series, but I don't think that one secondary source is enough, and even if it were I'm not sure that the magazine it's in would meet notability guidelines if someone tried to create an article about it. ‡ MAHEWA ‡ • talk 02:05, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

*Keep Media coverage on this series is substantial. Pitchfork, 2 IFC write-ups, IFC, Paste Magazine, and the Philadelphia Inquirer have all covered the series, among other publications. Allysonwondrlnd— Allysonwondrlnd (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
