[edit] Boneyard (band)

It's like a disambiguation page except not. Borderline, kinda-sorta assertion of notability, but very weak. —EdGl 04:37, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

• Forgot to vote...delete. Speedy Delete per db-author (article's author voted delete). —EdGl 04:39, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

• Just a comment, you don't actually need to vote since this is technically not a vote and because the act of nominating an article for deletion is already a statement of position on the matter. But continue to restate your position if you feel. joturner 04:46, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

• Yes, but sometimes the nominator's vote is keep. I have in fact seen this; it usually happens when they disagree with a prod tag on the page or notice that a prod tag has been taken down. Also, you don't know whether my delete "vote" was strong, weak, or neither, of if I had no vote at all (seen this happen too). Some just put articles on here just for consensus, having no opinion on the article's fate. —EdGl 16:03, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Edit: It also gives me the option of changing my vote, which is actually what I did (see above). 16:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

• Split The article is poorly written and indeed it talks about more than one band, but I don't believe that's reason for deletion. A split is necessary although I'm sure at least one band with the name Boneyard is not notable enough to have its own article. joturner 04:51, 27 June 2006 (UTC) Speedy Delete Now that its only editor wants the article to be deleted, per EdGl, it falls under {{db-author}}. joturner 17:39, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, none of the three are notable. In fact, the only somewhat notable band that goes by the name of Boneyard is a 90's rap group that doesn't seem to be mentioned in the nominated article [1]--TBCTaLk?!? 04:58, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Heh. I started the article, but upon further review, I don't think that there's enough info out there to make it more than a stub. Two out of the three groups with this name meet one of the criteria of WP:MUSIC (namely, the band contains at least one member who later joined a band that is otherwise notable), but I don't think that's going to be enough to sustain an article. I've merged some of the info on the L.A. glam band to help expand the article for its singer Chris Van Dahl. Perhaps the Gail Greenwood info could be merged into the Belly article. Alternatively, an article on Gail Greenwood could be started. --GentlemanGhost 09:58, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

• OK, I created an article stub for Gail Greenwood and moved the info on her from this article to it. I also expanded it to make it more useful. Consequently, I personally don't need this page anymore. --GentlemanGhost 00:15, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete, tagged with {{db-author}}. --Coredesat talk 05:20, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
