Bestial Warlust

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Long on claims, short on facts/references. AFD instead of Speedy in case I'm missing something, but I really don't see the notability here. TexasAndroid 13:05, 25 September 2007 (UTC) A link has now been added to the sentence that was copied verbatim.Navnløs 18:10, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - they not only fail WP:MUSIC, the article also has copyright issues - the introduction's last sentence is copied verbatim from here. Huon 13:21, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - it is not short on facts and references. If you go to the two references all the information is there.  Yes, the last sentence is copied verbatim, but is also referenced.  Not to mention, the sentence could be edited.  This is a noteworthy band from Australia, and is mentioned in many other articles but had no page of its own until recently.Navnløs 18:03, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Dëth Thrash Über-Dark Dëlëtë - Fails WP:BAND. -- Ben 19:38, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Reconsidering In light of this, I think I should probably reconsider my vote. I really hate to be thought of as an ass. I really do. -- Ben 22:51, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * My Case-How does it fail WP:BAND? For one they have members of other notable bands, namely Destroyer 666.  They are very reknowned for those familiar with the underground metal world.  They are one of the bands listed in notable Australian heavy metal albums Australian heavy metal.  They had a member that was in Hobbs' Angel of Death and another member from Abominator.  They are mentioned in many articles about australian metal bands and are known as a cult black metal band, and it says this in a couple articles (cult as in they never got mainstream but on the underground they were quite well known and popular).  They deserve an article here, being as noteworthy as they are.  There are many bands and metal bands that are not as well known, who have less references, that have pages here on wikipedia.  Not to mention I can't help but notice that all the people above critiquing and asking for the deletion of this article seem to know nothing about metal.Navnløs 22:33, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes I did refer to the above as "asses." I apologize and I will refrain from the use of offensive language. I have changed what I said before to that user.Navnløs 23:15, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep considering that www.allmusic.com says that there were "One of Australia's first black metal bands of note", I guess it's notable. (You have to enter "Bestial Warlust" in the search field, I don't know how to get a permanent link to the page). From an international perspective one could probably argue wether they are notable, but from an Australian perspective they clearly are, if they indeed pioneered Black Metal in Australia. And of course the Australian people speak English and use the English Wikipedia. Zara1709 11:22, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
