[edit] List of oldies musicians

Contested prod. A subjective, inaccurate and unmaintainable list Nuttah68 11:07, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. "Oldies radio" has always struck me as a subjective format definition, and basing an article on that kind of thing is a recipe for disaster - there's also a strange division between "Oldies" and "Classic Rock" which doesn't jibe with several examples I could think of.

• Delete Unmanageable, and arbitrary. How can the Rolling Stones, still touring in the 21st century, be in a list of oldies musicians? Similarly, The Who, Status Quo, Elton John, etc etc. How can Elvis Presly, still at #1 a while ago, be there? Why are individuals who did not have solo careers in the period listed (e.g. Jagger)? No, it's nonsense. Emeraude 12:15, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per BigHaz. --Metropolitan90 23:41, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - unmaintainable list with no context and, per BigHaz, arbitrary criteria for inclusion. --Jamoche 00:22, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
