Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable).
Prosthetic is not a major label, it's an indie. One of the more important indies? I don't know about that. TheJazzDalek (talk) 02:05, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
"This is a list of notable record labels, starting with I-Q." Stated at the top of the page, proving that both the label and band are notable enough to be here. Give them a look, there's quite a few bands for an 11 year old record company. EOA3928 (talk) 02:14, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
You misunderstand me. I didn't say Prosthetic didn't pass Wikipedia standards of notability. I said I wasn't sure that they were "one of the more important indies" mentioned in WP:MUSIC. TheJazzDalek (talk) 03:06, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Ya kinda have to think about it like, "if it's here on Wikipedia and hasn't been deleted yet, it's probably important." Generally, I figure if it's on Wiki and it hasn't been eliminated, it's probably got some notability and importance, because a lot of people tend to delete pages that they deem not important, yet there's a Wikipedia page about breadcrumbs. I'm not trying to come off as a jerk; I'm just trying to save these pages. It meets the guidelines, so I figure it shouldn't be a problem, ya know? On another note, one of the more famous metal bands of this age, All That Remains, is on this label, as well as band Lamb of God was once with this label. Both of these bands are extremely notable, and on this label, so I assume, most bands that have enough information, on such a label shouldn't be a problem.

I'm going to drop it but first I'll try one last time to explain: being notable by Wikipedia standards is not an endorsement of importance. Something can meet the WP inclusion criteria without being exceptionally important. TheJazzDalek (talk) 03:25, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Like breadcrumbs? Just saying..... I understand what you're saying, though. I've worked hard at keeping this page as notable and worthwhile, and this only proves that I should do better. Still, I appreciate that you even brought this up. It'll ensure that I keep this page as noteworthy as possible. EOA3928 (talk) 03:31, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
