Dave Grohl discography

Another example of my being on the fence. While I would normally suggest merging this article to Dave Grohl, I don't think that would make sense because he has never recorded any albums as a solo artist. Erpert (let's talk about it) 05:55, 26 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Merge He's clearly notable, the list is potentially helpful to users... But this should be a section at the bottom of the biography page (without all the headlines), just as is done for writers under "Works". Carrite (talk) 15:13, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not questioning his notability; I'm questioning his having a solo discography article when he has never been a solo artist. Erpert (let's talk about it) 17:32, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The self-titled first Foo Fighters album was technically a solo recording, solely written, performed and recorded by Dave Grohl under the pseudonym Foo Fighters, so you can't really say that Grohl has never recorded any albums as a solo artist. --Canley (talk) 02:50, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Additionally, the album Pocketwatch was a Dave Grohl solo album, also recorded under a pseudonym (Late!). --Canley (talk) 03:07, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I thought about that, but since they weren't credited as such... Erpert (let's talk about it) 06:18, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep or Merge The information itself is important enough, but might not be important enough to go into the Dave Grohl main article. -- mitchsurp -- (talk) 04:06, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep/Merge. Clearly encyclopedic. Either way, a deletion discussion isn't appropriate.--Michig (talk) 17:17, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * It would only be inappropriate if this were a bad faith nomination, which it wasn't. Erpert (let's talk about it) 06:11, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
