The result was   delete. An article that's forever doomed to be either unusably incomplete, or unusably massive. Consensus here is that no form this article could take would make for a reasonable encyclopedia article. ~ mazca  talk 21:11, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

E1 Music discography

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

E1 Music is a distributor of about eight zillion labels. There is no way that this could ever be complete, and this is a very half-assed start to begin with. I know that they have way more than rap artists on the label. This is comparable to Sony BMG discography; it would become incredibly long and complicated if kept, and there is no precedent for having discographies by label.

 * Delete per precedent. A page as such for E1 is particularly problematic because E1, and its predecessor Koch, are an avenue for any independent labels or project of generally any genre to seek distribution-only agreements with the company. Imperatore (talk) 22:00, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete While I disagree with your estimate of eight zillion labels, there are clearly far too many to include them all reasonably in this article. -- Bsay @ CSU  [ π ]  22:02, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm still not sure about allowing label discographies generally, but discographies of distributors and parent companies, listing releases on their various labels?  No, sorry, way too unwieldy.  ReverendWayne (talk) 00:38, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
