List of bands with colors in the title
Wikipedia is not a directory of "[l]ists or repositories of loosely associated topics". WP:BEANS and all, but will anyone ever write Bands with colors in the title and what could they say ? An example of the very worst sort of indiscriminate list. My opinion is delete. Angus McLellan (Talk) 15:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Indiscriminate information, plus colour is misspelt. WilyD 15:59, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Just correcting you, its spelt color per Blue (color) ;). On a more serious note, Delete per nom.  Someone pointed this article out to me a while back as an example of why something else should be kept. I thought to myself "what in the heck" but never got around to nominating it. &mdash;   Da rk Sh ik ar i   talk /contribs  16:06, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure it's spelt colour, per Orange (colour). It might be spelled color, however.  I stand by both my arguments. ;) WilyD 16:11, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Color is the American spelling while colour is the British/Canadian spelling. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 16:13, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Nothing makes a joke less funny than having it explained. WilyD 16:16, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You misspelled "spelt" too. Calicore 17:29, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete I imagine few if any of these bands and people have colours in their names; they'd have names of colours in their names. Unless they use symbols like the Artist formerly known as Prince. And a "List of bands and singers with names of colours in their names" strikes me as indiscriminate. Some of these are unrelated to the colour- if a band called itself Evergreen Terrace, I'd suspect it will be because of the Simpsons and not because they like the colour green.

 * Delete as per nom. wikipediatrix 16:28, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, obviously. --kingboyk 16:48, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. As much as I love the article, I have to give it to the nominator. Calicore 17:28, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete indiscriminate listcruft not in support of any encyclopedic article. Agent 86 17:32, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as much as I think that lists can have value, this is just too arbitrary and crufty of a list.-- danntm T C 23:58, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep I feel it has character. I liked reading and adding to it. Kendroberts 01:58, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Totally unencyclopedic. Quirky but interesting things have a place, but Wikipedia is not that place for this one. Piccadilly 22:58, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
