The result of the debate was Delete. I probably would have no consensus-ed it, but the lack of references at the time I closed this makes B.Wind's comment count as a delete, bringing it over the threshold. --Titoxd(?!? - help us) 07:24, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

  • This term has been bandied about in music circles the last few years. Wait for references; if there is no independent reference (Internet or print) by the end of AfD, then delete. B.Wind 04:12, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. Does need some references. --Thephotoman 07:04, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge Doesn't seem to be in popular usage, and the page is sparse. Would be better as a paragraph in the Pete Best article (with a redirect) or just plain deleted, imho. --kingboyk 17:00, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete It's easy to find references that disagree with the article[1], but hard to find ones that support it.
  • Keep or possibly Merge with Pete Best article. Jcuk 20:47, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - feel free to recreate if independent references can be found. JesseW, the juggling janitor 21:40, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
  • weak keep. I've heard this term quite a lot (ISTR first hearing it referring to Mick Abrahams on a documentary about Jethro Tull, of all people, in about 1990). Grutness...wha? 05:58, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - per WP:V unless someone comes up with a source. -GTBacchus(talk) 07:09, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
