The result was merge to Adam Young. Merge and redirect are basically the same, and the general argument (including the nominator's) is that there's no (current) independent notability from Adam Young. slakrtalk / 08:17, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe that this is independently notable from the article on the creator and sole member, Adam Young (better known for Owl City). That article already covers this musical side-excursion. Sᴠᴇɴ Mᴀɴɢᴜᴀʀᴅ Wha? 06:41, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep There are 15 "references" that are displayed as "further reading" and the project has an entry at AllMusic. Clearly meets both possible reliability standards and no further research was necessary. Might as well say that Owl City is not independently notable.

  • Merge to Adam Young. If someone releases music under a variety of different names, there's no requirement to have a separate article on each pseudonym. Especially as this seems to be a retrospective labelling rather than an organic band/music project, released after Young had already found fame under another name. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:15, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
