[edit] Screaming (music)
Screaming isn't a type of music; and it would be hard to define. Also the list section where it is asked to "keep this article alive" really doesn't seem to make this notable. -WarthogDemon 23:00, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Merge, I hope I am not mistaken but perhaps this article should be merged with Overtone singing.Naufana : talk 00:10, 7 July 2007 (UTC)Merge relevant bits to Screamo. They cover the same basic topic, and the latter article could benefit from the sources in this one.-- Kesh 02:04, 7 July 2007 (UTC)- Keep and Cleanup This is very important to people who spend a lot of time discussing the aesthetics of metal. Plenty of secondary source information out there on it. Needs some love from an experienced editor from Wikiproject Heavy Metal. This cannot be merged into Screamo, because it deals with screaming in many metal subgenres beyond screamo. Chubbles 02:05, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Screamo is a genre, not a style of singing. Screaming vocals predates the Screamo genre by a long way. Also, this article is well referenced. J Milburn 03:18, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
Merge somewhere or deleteScreaming is not in itself a notable and documented musical phenomenon. GassyGuy 19:16, 7 July 2007 (UTC)- Comment I completely disagree. Screaming is an incredibly important part of the aesthetics of many subgenres of modern rock music. Chubbles 19:24, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
- Question But are there reliable sources that also disagree? While the ones in the article mention screaming, none of them are specifically about screaming. There is one that comes close but for this to be documented in an encyclopaedia, somebody else would have to decide it's incredibly important and worthy of documentation. GassyGuy 19:31, 7 July 2007 (UTC) EDIT: I just noticed the one I credited with coming close is actually from WikiHow - scratch reliable from that. GassyGuy 19:32, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
- Ask and Ye Shall Receive! Five published books on heavy metal now cited, and some expansion done. I needed to go to the library anyway. Does it need more? Chubbles 20:44, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

- Changing vote to neutral I'm still not convinced it itself has been the primary topic of something, but it is now well-sourced and this leads me to believe it could be. Not sure it passes but equally unsure it doesn't, so best to err on the side of caution. GassyGuy 00:42, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Music-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 12:50, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep but I expect it to be worked on. ^^ ZOUAVMAN LE ZOUAVE 16:59, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
