Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/European blues
This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was delete. While several people made good arguments that an article on this topic would be encyclopedic, no one chose to defend the current content. I tend to agree that a redlink will be more likely to result in a quality article than starting from the current content. Rossami (talk) 07:06, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Comment: block-compress error will delay the actual deletion
Is there any call for 'category:blues groups of European origin'? And if so, what's so special about European blues as compared to, say, African blues (if any)? Certainly this should not be a list. Radiant! 17:08, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not a very useful list. Megan1967 00:00, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- This could easily be transformed into an excellent article on the subject of blues music in Europe. Keep.--Gene_poole 04:17, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- If someone wants to actually transform it in to an excellent article, that would be wonderful. Delete as it stands now. --Darkwind 04:21, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
- The term "European blues" is actually used. (http://www.euroblues.org/). Keep - this one can happily develop - David Gerard 12:49, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Well, maybe, but in that case the current article should still be blanked as the way it stands it will most likely develop to a list of blues groups in Europe. Radiant!
- Delete because I don't think there is anything useful to say about blues in europe. There is definitely a possibility of articles on French blues, Italian blues et al, but I don't think European blues is useful. Tuf-Kat 04:28, Feb 27, 2005 (UTC)
