What's next? Animal rights and folk music? Basically this is an essay that in itself is true but the subject is already covered at Anarchism and animal rights. No need to expand it even further. Also, WP:PLOT comes to mind. Yintan 21:00, 2 March 2019 (UTC)

- Keep - I don't see much overlap with the Anarchism and animal rights article. Animal rights has much more of an influence on punk than other kinds of music. Folk music doesn't have a vegan subgenre. The article is well supported, and doesn't seem like an agenda piece. --Nessie (talk) 01:31, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
- Could merge both into a more complete article on Animal rights in subcultures. Both of the articles under discussion have heavy overlap. czar 04:04, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. This is a well-sourced article and, though I haven't looked at all of the (numerous and predominantly scholarly) sources cited, it strongly suggests that the topic has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources. "What's next? Animal rights and folk music?" is a fallacious argument; see WP:OTHERSTUFFDOESNTEXIST. The claim that "the subject is already covered at Anarchism and animal rights" is demonstrably untrue: the body of that article doesn't even mention the word "punk". And none of the four points of WP:PLOT are even remotely applicable. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 21:59, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
