  • Seems to be yet another vanity page by drummer Michael Smith (apparently). Same user yet again (see above). Delete. Pteron 05:14, 12 May 2004 (UTC)
  • Sorry you weren't around in the 80's Pteron, but Figures on a Beach was actually a big deal back then. Opinions and a-holes. Everybody's got'em! Keep "Figures on a Beach". Delete Pteron.
    • That's wonderful, unsigned user who I strongly suspect to be Michael Smith. But don't write articles about youself, please. If your group really was that cool, wait for someone else to write about you. The way it is now, it looks like pure vanity. Pteron 05:41, 12 May 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Seems notable to me. Plenty of Google hits. Everyking 06:22, 12 May 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. The original motivation may have been vanity, but the article's now informative, wikified and reasonably NPOV. - TB 08:17, 12 May 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Even though I voted to delete the last few Michael Smith articles, it seems that Figures On A Beach did release several non-self-published albums, and as TB said, the article is informative, wikified and reasonably NPOV. I suggest merging anything useful from his other projects into this one. --Stormie 08:59, May 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep and stub it.Alcarillo 16:05, 12 May 2004 (UTC)
