  • Comment. Not all redlinks are notable. Is that a "Keep" vote? --Alan Au 04:23, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
    • No, that wasn't a vote, it was more a "don't bite the newbies" thing. However, since Music of Kansas cites a source for his original band's notability (Blush, Steven. American Hardcore: A Tribal History. 2001. Feral House. ISBN 0-922915-717-7), I will in fact vote Keep. Kappa 04:49, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
      • Hey, I'm a practically a newbie myself and I'm not biting anyone - I left him a message on The Slabs discussion page with some links and put a welcome note on his IP User Page. Having said that, I'm not convinced any encylopedia needs an article on an 'urban rap electronic trance' outfit once started by a minor musician in the Kansas 80's Punk scene, but still happily remove the Speedy part of my original vote.

  • Comment. Prehaps actually READING the guidelines is a good thing... had I done that previous to putting in this entry, I would not have posted it. I don't think that the reference to The Slabs could be stated as a reference to an 'extremely notable' source, minor scene as you stated... so I would conceed the point. However as the page notes say not to remove it myself, I will let the process take its own course. Thousand pardons begged...lesterUbe
