Mainstream pop punk bands
User:Evilchino posted a number of bands in the introduction, without any discussion in the talk page. This happened on August 30th, 2006. The bands added were; Sunny Day Real Estate, The Movielife, Spitalfield, The Academy Is..., and Hellogoodbye. The user also deleted (possible vandalism) these bands from the overview paragraph; Simple Plan, Sum 41, Relient K, Panic! at the Disco. While pruning is a good thing, this user has not engaged in discussion and made a case for their additions to the article. I am returning the list to where it was before the changes. If this happens again with more frequency it will be addressed as vandalism. Instead, please use the discussion page (HERE) to state your ideas and communicate with others. Here's my specific comment about the bands added to the list. While at this point, we dont have a set criteria for which bands should be mentioned in the overview, it seems that the overview itself uses the idea "mainstream success." Again, what is the criteria for mainstream success? We could develop one here, which would be useful, but in the meantime, i think we can agree that the bands added to the list are not more mainstream than even the least mainstream on the list prior to the edit, (the least was probably Relient K which could be argued that it should not be on the list. A good rule of thumb is concidering if the band is a household name. For instance, my mom listens to Green Day. She also has Fall Out Boy on her Ipod shuffle for when she exercises, also in the shuffle are the Beatles, Michael Jackson, Jason Mraz, Natasha Bettingfield, etc. Anyway, would anyone object to the removal of Relient K, or can it be established that they have reached mainstream success, should we attempt to settle on a criteria for mainstream pop punk bands?
