[edit] Faith No Man

Faith No Man (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

As the article says, "For all intents and purposes, Faith No Man is actually an early incarnation of Faith No More". I tried to redirect it to Faith No More but was reverted twice. Now the community should decide if this (virtually empty) article on a band which clearly fails WP:MUSIC is necessary to the project. John (talk) 15:35, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep It does meet WP:MUSIC #6. I see no discussion on the talk page regarding the redirect but a redirect seems very appropriate. Gtstricky^{Talk or C} 17:25, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

• Merge - to Faith No More as part of the band's early history. Should there be a separate article on "The Primettes" before they became a trio and changed their name to "The Supremes"? - eo (talk) 19:13, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge per above, keep page title as a redirect to more notable Faith No More. Xymmax (talk) 19:32, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect. There simply isn't enough material for an article, and this is best handled as part of the lineup history of Faith No More. --Dhartung | Talk 19:38, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• There's no real reason for this to have a separate article from the one on the much more notable band it evolved into. Merge and redirect to Faith No More. Bearcat (talk) 20:06, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge better suited as a single subject. Chubbles (talk) 22:11, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect, usually these sorts of cases are not independently notable.--h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 18:56, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Faith No More, it's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it. I suggest expanding the section on Faith No Man in the Faith No More article by including the information here that's not there (which is basically what a Merge is anyway).
