Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Music
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Music. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Music|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Music. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

The term looks made up, and seems to be OR, we also have other articles (even linked here) for much of this. Slatersteven (talk) 14:52, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

- The title of the article can be changed to a more neutral wording, such as "British influence on the world".
- In my view, duplicated information is not a sufficient reason to delete this article. British influences on the world have taken place both before and after the British Empire, so having some kind of dedicated resource to discuss this seems fair, and the current Legacy of the British Empire link goes only to a relatively short section in the British Empire article, which is insufficient to communicate the full impact of British influence, as well as implicitly colouring to some extent the overall British impact in more of a Imperial-political light, rather than giving a wholly global overview. In general, it should be possible to learn (or at least be linked to) the same information from different articles on Wikipedia, as this allows for a more comprehensive coverage of any one given topic while still showing the linkages between various topics. Also, there are articles discussing many other forms of -"-isations", such as Americanisation or Croatisation, so having one for a prolifically influential country like Britain seems paramount.

Mildly promotional biography of a music marketer who fails WP:NBIO, WP:GNG; moved to mainspace after being declined at AFC. She seems to have received some coverage for a past connection to Britney Spears, but her notability cannot be WP:INHERITED from Spears. The coverage of this connection is also tabloid coverage (Mirror, Daily Soap Dish, People), which is disallowed for establishing notability per WP:SBST. The remaining sources are limited to:
- WP:ROUTINE coverage in WP:TRADES publication MusicRow ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5])
- WP:PRIMARYSOURCE Q&A interviews ([6], [7], [8], [9], [10])
- WP:TRIVIALMENTIONs ([11], [12])
- Promotional material like coverage in Forbes of a Forbes-sponsored panel discussion ([13])
As for her 30 Under 30 listings ([14], [15]), there is no consensus that these are the kinds of awards that would make someone independently notable under WP:ANYBIO. (The Forbes 30 under 30 is "awarded" to 1,230 people each year across geographies and industries so is not a rare honor.) I didn't find any other qualifying coverage in my WP:BEFORE search.

Company is one guy selling guitar picks through Etsy. Notability seems pretty questionable, with almost all the sources being, um, "popular" websites like The Awesomer, BoingBoing, and LaughingSquid. All of which links that I tried are dead. The only functioning link seems to be a Tennessean article of the "spotlight on a local business variety." It's something, but Google has nothing else, and if you take away all the promo and dead links, there isn't much of an article left. Mbinebri (talk) 17:24, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

- Weak delete The Tennesseean article is WP:SIGCOV, and possibly the Guitar Player as well if it weren't a dead link. All other sources are either product reviews or gift guides. One more reliable non-promotional source and I would be inclined to keep. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 23:43, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete To me, this is a promo of this specific brand name picks. Half of the article is devoted to reviews and press coverage. Compare that with any link in the navbox at the bottom. The navbox leads the reader to specific methods and some of the famous pickers who have developed their own particular style. — Maile (talk) 00:55, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. There are enough sources here to merit an article per WP:GNG. The context of this AFD attempt is that I created a sockpuppet case page at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Roberteditor, tying together a bunch of IPs and some socks that have been editing the Terry Blade bio and related pages. Two hours and change later, User:BladeTerry registered the username to delete the bio. My guess is that the history of socking is what BladeTerry wants deleted.

I cannot find evidence of Lamas' notability as a singer nor for his company which is a worthwhile educational initiative but doesn't appear notable. Coverage appears to be churnalism that is otherwise non independent. There are a lot of hits noting one of the company's artists is performing and some related to someone else of this name, but I cannot find anything of depth.

Very minor, likely non-notable SoundCloud/Bandcamp musician. Based off the sources, the article probably meets WP:SIGCOV, however these are articles which themselves either imply that the subject is not notable or only note that the artist has released music.

This is largely an essay lackign a sourced defintion of "internet aesthetic" and collection of topics that aren't supported through any source suggesting their connection to this term.

- Delete All of this is synthesis. Just because an aethetic or design or fashion is popular in the modern day and is discussed on the internet does not mean it is an "internet aethetic". That's just how the world works now, not a substantive cohesive concept: "that usually originates from the Internet or is popularized on it" – very little in the last 20 years wasn't popularized on the internet, so this is a meaningless characteristic unless you are just fluffing up the most recent and niche trends. "micro-trends such as mob wife and tomato girl summer" Groan. Which sources actually bring the concepts here together? Reywas92Talk 14:56, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete For all reasons above. At most, this might be best suited as a category for worthwhile articles such as Corecore, dark academia, light academia, and so on. Only problem is that the title is itself a wholesale invention. I don't think it's influenced the popular literature to remain as . Ornov Ganguly TALK 17:56, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - I agree with the nom and the arguments presented that the article is a synthesis of original research. Perhaps in a few years if scholarly books or articles are written about this topic it will become notable. At this time it is not. Netherzone (talk) 18:50, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - Agree with everyone else. History being a definition of aesthetic with a line from Vogue tacked on? Seems like a desperate, last minute high school essay more than an article.

- Keep - Clearly significant coverage of this, not in stuffy academic literature yet, but that's not a requirement for notability. I've spot-checked a couple of the listed aesthetics and found multiple people referring to them as 'Internet Aesthetics', or found them on lists of 'Internet Aesthetics' of course if things on this list are not called 'Internet Aesthetics' they shouldn't be there, and can be removed. (If that happens to leave us with the two that I picked at random, a delete might be appropriate!) JeffUK 11:15, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

- Weak delete: While there has been significant coverage, the article does not entirely read like something that should be on wikipedia.

In my WP:BEFORE I couldn't find any significant coverage in reliable sources. Much of the coverage that there was was related to the subject's role as musical director of the Keystone State Boychoir, and only passing mention at that. I couldn't find any critical reviews of the Concert Mass that is referred to in the article, although its premiere was at Carnegie Hall [16]. I therefore propose that the notability bar is not met, and that the content should be merged into the Keystone State Boychoir article (not that that itself is without problems!) with a Redirect from this article.

- Yes there is, don't delete. Many people use this wiki page Dave ida (talk) 21:08, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- An old label with many connections to artists and other labels Dave ida (talk) 21:11, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete I've added the only references that I could find, and that was an interview with the owner, so it's not much of a reference. I've had a nosey around and can't seem to find any other references that count towards notability. Delete per WP:GNG. Knitsey (talk)
Weak Keepstrike duplicate !vote There are some articles regarding band album releases on Pickled Egg Records. Fryedk (talk) 23:02, 6 December 2024 (UTC)- Keep Significant because of relative longevity (for an indie label) and connections to a couple of major acts, most importantly Daniel Johnston. I've added a couple of press refs.MongogramForCandy (talk) 10:23, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. I've added links for notable musicians who have recorded for the label, including Jeremy Barnes (A Hawk and a Hacksaw, Neutral Milk Hotel, Beirut), Seb Rochford (Polar Bear, Acoutic Ladyland), Alex Neilson (Trembling Bells, Will Oldham, et al), writer, broadcaster (BBC Radio 3 and Radio 4) and musician David Bramwell; plus of course, the aforementioned Daniel Johnston, and the debut Go! Team single. Nigel Turner (talk) 11:25, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- The label famously - some might say, infamously - secured five entries in John Peel's Festive Fifty in 1998, a mere 12 months after launching; I've added a reference for this. The label also set up and managed Daniel Johnston's first European tour; again, I've added a reference to this. Nigel Turner (talk) 21:10, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Added links and citation for the release in 1999 of the Evolution Control Committee's 'Whipped Cream Mixes', considered to be the first modern mash-up record. Nigel Turner (talk) 12:23, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
KEEP!Because Pickled Egg was a great label and this entry should be kept for posterity! 84.67.149.83 (talk) 16:47, 8 December 2024 (UTC)- hyhas 'KEEP' been struck out here? Doesn't appear to be a duploicate to me. Nigel Turner (talk) 21:20, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- Keep record label that represented a host of important UK bands. Fryedk (talk) 21:31, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- Keep! I've referred to this page a number of times, found it very helpful when exploring an area of the music scene that is underrepresented online and pages like this one are an important resource and document. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:2B1B:2501:1110:439:E531:A57D (talk) 14:48, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: I don't have any proof, but this discussion has all the hallmarks of having been the subject of canvassing. Giving it another week to invite comment from previously uninvolved users.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Just Step Sideways (talk) 23:47, 13 December 2024 (UTC)Keepstrike duplicate !vote. I've added yet another notable citation, this time for the 2006 BBC Radio 1 One World one hour Pickled Egg Records Special. How many small independent labels can boast of that? The Wire Magazine did an interview with Pickled Egg in the early 2000s, but I can't find any online reference to it. I have a printed copy somewhere, but so far haven't been able to locate it. Regarding the suggestion of 'canvassing', I completely refute this. I have no idea who these people are who have left comments. Nigel Turner (talk) 20:25, 14 December 2024 (UTC)- I've added a link to the Robots & Electronic Brains interview with Nigel Turner. Nigel Turner (talk) 20:37, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
Keep.strike duplicate !vote I've added four more notables, which now brings the number up to 21, or thereabouts. Nigel Turner (talk) 20:58, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: These are about the best I can find for sourcing [17], [18], I don't think we have enough to show notability. References now in the article aren't enough for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 00:53, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Can't find any other sources aside from what Oaktree b has already found. No WP:SIGCOV. Procyon117 (talk) 14:11, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
- Keep There seems to be enough, though light notability. MannyMammal (talk) 02:01, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete There appears to be some confusion over the relevant criteria. This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP requires at least two deep or significant sources with each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. Adding lists of "notable acts" doesn't confer notability on the record company WP:NOTINHERIT. Unfortunately, unless there's another place to put the information, this doesn't meet the criteria. Perhaps someone could create an article on Nigel Turner (Record Producer) which might be easier to meet notability criteria? HighKing++ 21:24, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
- I strongly disagree with this. Record labels only exist to facilitate and promote musicians. If you take this line, then no record label should have an entry on Wikipedia. Many of the musicians on Pickled Egg were first brought to the public's attantion on Pickled Egg, and have gone on to become notable following their association with the label. To my mind, this makes the label itself notable. And I fully disclose my conflict of interest here. Nigel Turner (talk) 10:54, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- I have no desire to have a Nigel Turner Wikipedia entry. The label is notable, not me. Nigel Turner (talk) 11:08, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- What about the fact that BBC Radio One dedicated a one hour showcase to the label in 2006? Or the fact that the label secured no less than five entries in John Peel's Festive Fifty in 1998? Or the fact that the label released what is recognised as the first ever modern mash-up record? Or the fact that the label organised Daniel Johnston's first ever European tour? If you know any thing about alternative/independent music, you would know that these are all notable. All of these are cited on the page. I know of numerous independent record labels that have Wikipedia entries that haven't even come close to any of these acheievements. Nigel Turner (talk) 12:37, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- How would you view the notability of Silence Records or Sunflower Records? Randomly perusing through record labels on Wikipedia, there are a great many without the criteria you mention. Are you suggesting we need to remove dozens and dozens of articles? Fryedk (talk) 14:00, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: the HM reference is good, and the Lloyd Harp IVM review would be pending on the outcome of the RFC regarding IVM. that's two sources, and we'd want three or four. I'm going to take a look before I make a decision.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 10:18, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
- The only other coverage I can find that would be RS is from The Metal Resource, and it's mostly reviews. I think for now notability is definitely questionable.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 16:48, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
