- Delete I think you have stumbled onto a real problem area. As I examine Template:Mindless_Self_Indulgence, I see a massive series of articles devoted to a marginally notable group. Their singles have charted, but only on the fairly insignificant "Hot Dance Singles Sales" chart ... couldn't make Dance Club Play or Dance Airplay, much less a mainstream chart like the Hot 100 or Pop 100. Two of their albums fared a little better. It's really hard to justify 30 articles, one per non-charting single, one per non-charting album, one per promo EP, one per promo single, and full biographies of every member of the band.—Kww(talk) 17:28, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Show me those "full biographies", please. Could it be that you're really talking about Mindless Self Indulgence#Current members? What's wrong with that? And if I take a look at Mindless Self Indulgence discography, I see lots of single-digit chart entries, Hot Dance Singles Sales or not. --Avant-garde a clue-hexaChord2 18:20, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Jimmy Urine was redirected after my comment. I missed that Lyn Z was redirected a few weeks ago.—Kww(talk) 18:30, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete/Merge I have to agree with the above, while the band clearly meets notability requirements, somewhere a line has to be drawn. If everything is merged then cfd the categories. Beach drifter (talk) 18:15, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
