Dissident Sound System

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable group. Do not even claim to create any original music. -- RHaworth 08:15, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non-notable group; googling reveals no useful sources. -FisherQueen (Talk) 13:09, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:ATT, WP:BAND. Only 21 hits on UK Google, several of which aren't relevant.  So they're an (admittedly) faceless bunch combining with several others to play background music at parties and clubs in the Bristol area.  That ain't notable.  Ravenswing 16:46, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as it does not assert notablity per Notability (music). --Roswell native 03:49, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Did you miss the mention of dissident's Jungletek Movement record label, on its 5th release of a 4 track EP featuring original music? A notable contributor to the UK party scene, one of only a handful of soundsystem's that represent the UK on an international level at the European teknivals. People calling for deletion would do well to research freetekno rave culture before shooting their mouths off calling for deletion. Claims of "background music" are ridiculous, have you ever heard background music on a 12 killowatt soundsystem? Activities are not limited to the Bristol area, or even to this country, as they have been as far as Czech republic, Italy, France etc. with the soundsystem. For someone whose sole interest appears to be ice hockey, Ravenswing's ego outsrips his knowledge on this matter and should keep his ill informed oopinions to himself.
 * Comment: Wikipedia's rules about personal attacks aside (which I don't expect a first-time edit anon IP to have known), that's gerat.  So source it.  Wikipedia's rules (which you can find, pertinent to this AfD, at WP:ATT and WP:BAND) require reliable, published, independent sources for any such claims.  It is not our job to research anyone's so-called culture; it is up to the editors responsible for this article to do so, and to prove their claims.  Ravenswing 15:19, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
