List of Foo Fighters band members

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Redundant content. Lists like this are notable for bands that had significant lineup changes throughout their history. The Foo Fighters, however, have not. The changes are already covered in detail in their article. -- ChrisB (talk) 03:46, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. When it comes to lineup changes, they're not exactly the Queens of the Stone Age. J- ſtan TalkContribs 03:53, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Per the nom reason. This information is already properly covered in the main article. - Rjd0060 (talk) 04:25, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, totally redundant to the article.--h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 05:33, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Put anything useful back into the Foo Fighters page; redirect it after. • Lawrence Cohen  05:53, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see the need for this group to have a list.Balloonman (talk) 07:19, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as everything relevant can be kept (or is kept) in the band article. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 08:35, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete The band haven't had many significant line-up changes in their successful years. Martin B (talk) 10:14, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Leave or merge There's been a lot of instrument-switching over the years in the band, and it's too vague to simply write it in a list. I've tried adding this table to the article, but that always gets rejected, and I've tried clarifying who played what when in other ways, but that always gets reverted too. Now I've tried making this, but it's just getting nominated for deletion! How am I supposed to write the important details of this information without someone undoing it?
 * I'd also like to point out that there is a page for Def Leppard band members, and they've had seven line-ups too, but no one says anything about that page!

 * The problem is that you refuse to listen to the opinions of other editors. The active editors of both Foo Fighters and Nirvana (band) have made it abundantly clear (ie, consensus) that they do not think a list of this type is useful in the article.  Your response was to create new articles for the explicit purpose of adding these lists to Wikipedia.  That's not how Wikipedia works. -- ChrisB (talk) 21:51, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
