A Czech goregrind band. They have a similar case as Neurovisceral Exhumation: they had multiple albums, but I did not found any site that discusses the band's history, only databases that can be edited by anyone ( https://www.google.com/search?q=pathologist+band&oq=patho&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j69i59j0l2j69i60l2.1740j0j4&client=ms-android-huawei&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8). They don't have an article on the Czech Wikipedia either. I checked Google if I can find anything notable about the band but I only found databases (Metal Archives, Discogs, Metal Storm) that does not make notability for the article. The rest of the search pages were pages with the word "pathologist" that has no relation to the band at all. This means there are no reliable sources that makes this group notable, so I think they are not notable to be in Wikipedia. GhostDestroyer100 ( talk) 10:56, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
- Found an interview with the band and a paper from Masaryk University mentioning the band, both in Czech. I can use them to expand the article if it's enough (haven't find anything more yet). -- ɴõɴəχүsƚ 20:57, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
The interview could be good, but if that paper just mentions the band, it does not qualify as a reliable source. And I think one source is not enough to make an article notable.

I checked the sources. If that interview would be added to the page, I think that wouldn't help either since the other sources are MySpace (not independent from the band and does not indicate any reliability) and a site called Bandzone.cz (that seems like it can be edited by anyone, and it does not even contain Pathologist's history). Also, the article's notability has been questioned since 2008.

- Delete - I agree with GhostDestroyer100. Plenty of due diligence has been done to find notable sources with no luck. KailuaKid ( talk) 20:53, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
That paper is about the history of grindcore and its related genres in Czech. It is interesting but it is not about Pathologist; it just mentions the band (like you said). So I uphold my opinion.
- Comment This nomination was created without the {{ afd2}} template and never transcluded to a daily log. Fixed now--I have no opinion of my own on the nomination itself at this time. -- Finngall talk 17:18, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. Not enough information about it in WP:RS. Doesn't pass our notability guidelines.-- Darwinek ( talk) 23:09, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
