Band vanity. Local/unsigned band from Manchester. —Mar·ka·ci:2005-02-7 13:21 Z
This page should not be deleted as it is about a genuine, and popular band on the UK, Manchester rock scene. This band is big enough to inform people about them. This is NOT publicity as is clear from the unbiased way the article has been written.It is purely informative.
- Delete I enjoy quite a lot of Manchester music, but this seems below the bar for encyclopedic inclusion. Tried several search terms, for example "three fluid ounces" + Manchester; (three fluid ounces" + band; three fluid ounces" + music; 3floz + band; etc. None brought relevant results.

- Additional note: When I did my research for this, the hit counter on their official site was at 206 visitors. This would seem to call into question the claim that they are popular or well-known even on a local level. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:17, Feb 7, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. The usual criterion for inclusion of bands is that they should have recordings published by recognized labels. This is a low threshold for notability, although it might not seem so to a band that doesn't have a recording contract yet. --BM 16:32, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, non-notable. --Idont Havaname 23:50, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not notable - Filtered results give 1 Google hit, possible vanity. Megan1967 06:42, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
