[edit] Very large lists such as The Beatles tribute bands
If this list - http://beatlemaniaalumni.com/TRIBUTE_BANDS.htm is accurate, the number of beatle tribute bands is going to get out of hand very quickly. We either need to come up with some criteria for inclusion, or split them off into their own page (by extension any other band with a large number of tributes will require this also) Djbrianuk 22:10, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- A different solution: for Pink Floyd, a large list of tribute band existed at the main article. Then the list (and similar stuff) was moved to a Pink Floyd trivia page. Then I have replaced the minilist that was here (5 bands) with a direct link to the full list on the other page. 62.147.113.126 17:39, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Merge content from Tribute bands
Another article on this subject exist (apparently accidentally due to someone not following naming conventions). I'm not up to do the merging at the moment myself, but there is definitely some good content and prose there to be integrated into this article. If no one else works on it, I'll do the merger work as soon as I can. Autiger 04:56, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- indeed. I'd noticed the need for a merge a few weeks ago (I created this one originally) so have now finally managed to do it. Some good stuff has been brought in! --Vamp:Willow 17:41, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks, good job. Autiger 21:39, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Useful links deleted by Weyes
On 15:32, 20 February 2006, deletionist User:Weyes destroyed this information (diff):
-
- Tribute-Band.com - Free directory of tribute bands, reviews. (With ads.)
- Tribute City.com - Commercial directory of tributes bands, reviews, news, articles.
- Global Gig.com - Commercial directory of tribute bands.

Since I believe it useful at least for research and list consolidation/expansion, I'm saving it here for the benefit of more wikipedian editors. -- 62.147.113.190 15:47, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
