Fiend Club
Non-notable fanclub that only existed for four years in the 1980s, would have been a possible A7 but it was founded by a notable person, the lead singer of The Misfits, and it's been around for a while. I don't think a merge is valid as the misfits article is very long already Delete-- Jaranda wat's sup 03:41, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * A merge is still appropriate; the issue of whether to break The Misfits up into multiple articles is a separate one (though I agree, it is too long and needs editing down or breaking into sub-articles). Alba 04:10, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Eusebeus 15:40, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - These AfDs are getting more and more ridiculous. PT  ( s-s-s-s ) 17:19, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I take umbrage slightly with this dismissive and borderline uncivil attitude. What, exactly about the Misfit's fan club warrants its own separate entry as opposed to deleting this and letting it be included at the Misfits?  Does every fan club warrant an entry?  Why is this one so particularly notable that it warrants a fork from the band's page?  I am sure you can provide good and possibly compelling reasons for your decision to keep, but citing WP:OSTRICH seems in this case outside the Point. Eusebeus 17:31, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Definitely dismissive, certainly incivil. Nothing personal against you, but there has been a crop of bad, bad AfDs lately, and I think this is one of them. I think there are just some people out there who don't like music, aren't fans of music, and don't want to see music articles on Wikipedia, so they're putting up as much as possible for AfD. There was recently a bunch of food articles speedily deleted by a misguided editor, and that demonstrates the point I'm trying to make - why should someone have to argue for an article on Nilla Wafers to be kept? Many of us know what they are, do we really need to take the time to argue about it? Similarly, Fiend Club is pretty well known, and if some misguided editor hasn't heard of it, guess what... there is an article there for them to learn! Unless, of course, they delete it before reading it. PT  ( s-s-s-s ) 17:35, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article contains no assertions of notability, and provides no credible, third-party sources.  -- Satori Son 00:59, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
