Fingersnapping

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article has been around 16 years without a single cite. Looking around, I don't see reliable sources discussing it, just a few forums, thus it fails WP:GNG. The technique probably exists, but if there isn't significant coverage in reliable sources, that point is moot. Dennis Brown - 2&cent; 10:37, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete & Redirect to Finger snapping. This article Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSICOTHER. I attempted to do WP:Before research on the topic before I voted. This does not appear to have enough significant coverage on the topic to be an article. ₛₒₘₑBₒdyₐₙyBₒdy₀₅ (talk) 12:08, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete I couldn't find sufficient sources to show notability. Suonii180 (talk) 14:28, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete & Redirect to Finger snapping. I can find no reliable sources discussing the term in a way that supports the information in the article.  Thus, with absolutely no reliable sources, the content of the article should not be kept.  After deletion, however, the term should be used as a Redirect to Finger snapping, as a plausible search term.  Rorshacma (talk) 15:32, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
 * There are loads of books on drumming, from a full USMC manual to Bill Bachman's books, and this technique probably has a proper name, but it isn't this, which appears to mix up two different terminologies for two different types of drum, and a quick review finds nothing to support this as a stick technique for diddles. Bachman has a name, for a very similar technique, but xe acknowledges that it is xyr own coined name.  And there a much better sources around with proper formal treatments of this stuff, using concepts like "fulcrum".  Uncle G (talk) 10:28, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
