Can this be directed to Goth#Music? Gah, I should apply to be an admin at some point... --MilkMiruku 15:04, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Sadly not. Redirects to sections are not currently implemented as part of MediaWiki. Feel free to discuss this at the Village Pump though. --Celestianpower ^háblame 15:32, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

ah well.. how about to just goth then? gothic rock isn't really representative of the types of music goths listen to these days. --MilkMiruku 20:28, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Gothic means all music that is Gothic, not just what Goths listen to. Which would then emmit such genres as Gothic Metal. Ley Shade 00:31, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

then how about a quick disambig page, something along the lines of

The term gothic music has been used to refer to:

• Music related to the goth subculture
• Gothic rock
• Gothic metal

In hindsight, that is what probally should of been done in the first place. Ley Shade 13:47, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion

I deleted the second part of the disambiguation, because a Goth can prefer any kind of music, for example:

• • Aggrotech
  • Coldwave
  • Dark electro
  • Darkwave
  • Electro-Industrial
  • Electronic Body Music
  • Ethereal Wave
  • Futurepop
  • Heavy Metal
  • Industrial music
  • Neo-classical music
  • New Wave
  • Post punk
  • Psychobilly
  • Punk rock
  • Techno
  • Trance
  • Forms of medieval music
  • Some forms of classical music
  • Some forms of Opera

The second reason is: These kinds of music aren't Gothic music styles. --~Menorrhea 17:06, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
