[edit] Gothic-Americana

Gothic-Americana (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Removed Prod: I think this would be better off in the Goth article, or the like. Article is unsourced, and sadly filled with terms like "Like a medicine show without the snake oil, the shows are filled with an incomparable energy." Also uses Wikipedia as a source.

  • Delete No assertion, no sources, no notability. Most of the article is a list of famous singers of that genre. Perhaps it could be merged into Goth, Americana, or Alt-country? NASCAR Fan24(radio me!) 15:59, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete and Merge into Goth and Americana - This is most likely copied off of some promotion for the genre on a website or otherwise. There is enough notability to warrant a separate section on the above-mentioned articles, though. Ανέκδοτο 16:02, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete; what little bits of this article that aren't unsourced aggrandizement don't amount to enough left to establish notability. — Coren (talk) 17:10, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Might be a legitimate genre[1], but sources that actually define what it encompasses are lacking. Could be recreated. Ichormosquito 19:53, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
