[edit] Dark Garage

Dark Garage (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Not enough to distiguish from UK Garage. nn music genre Kaini (talk) 21:32, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Just to expand on things a bit, I got involved in this AfD because of the repeated addition of the term to the Dubstep page. I know it's not the be all and end all of notability, but

I contend that there simply isn't enough to distinguish this genre from UK Garage or 2-step garage, and the article in present state doesn't outline what does distinguish it, or even outline its characteristics. Never going to be more than a variant on "it's UK garage, but darker" and a list of artists. --Kaini (talk) 22:16, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Man, fuck you. Your favourite pitchfork gives at least two remindings of dark garage SCENE (google pitchfork dark garage). Pitchfork is notable/reliable, aint you? It is the 1st.
Second, no one denies the existence of Dark psytrance, Dark Electro, etc darkshit. though to you logic they don't exist ("just a darker variation").
Third, i gave it a stub-level, it is to expand surely (if even not by me).
Fourth, you better watch your thing, like deleting redlinks from articles, putting non-existent references to it, and hiding a big piece of information on roots of your fav. dubstep.

Hah, and also try to google ('dark garage' && 'grime'), ('dark garage' && 'beakbeat garage'), ('dark garage' && 'breakstep'), because it seems you are able to read it badly. -- Werwerwer11 (talk) 09:33, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
This is the second time I have had to tell you I won't tolerate being abused by you. Either remain civil or stop editing on wiki, those are your choices. And again, please read this policy - you seem to have a problem with me citing printed references such as The Wire (magazine) --Kaini (talk) 11:27, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Strong delete. Adding any arbitrary adjective to the name of a genre does not denote a new genre, something clearly reflected in that pitchfork article. No-one is denying that some garage tracks are "darker" than others, but such tracks still fall under the UK garage umbrella. Nothing in the pitchfork article indicates otherwise. Also, please don't replace the stylistic origins section on the Grime article with this term unilaterally, a group of us had gone through some considerable negotiations to get an acceptable consensus comprimise.

...and likewise for the dubstep article, which went through a similar amount of tweaking regarding stylistic origins. --Kaini (talk) 19:05, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
