Gothic cowboy

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Apparently non-notable fashion trend. Searches returns a few literal results - ie. people using "gothic cowboy" as a nickname &c - but no substantial discussion of "gothic cowboy" as a fashion trend. bobrayner (talk) 13:49, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak keep Very niche and low impact scene, but it was real and a distinctive look. The Nephs are where to start looking for sourcing. Andy Dingley (talk) 14:15, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I tried that and found no sources which actually discussed the "gothic cowboy" subject in any more depth than just gluing together the words "gothic" and "cowboy" as part of a discussion of related concepts. If you can identify any sources, they would be welcome; but in the meantime The Nephs might not be cited, because it's a wikipedia article and it neither includes nor paraphrases "gothic cowboy". Whether or not it's real is not at stake; notability is the problem. bobrayner (talk) 17:20, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete despite Andy Dingley's promise of sources, there are none to be found and I don't see how anyone in their right mind thinks you can use another Wikipedia article as a source. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 03:13, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
