List of bands with punctuation marks in their names
Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and this seems too much like "bandcruft." --Mr. L e fty Talk to me! 23:52, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete This list doesn't even have an encyclopedic purpose. --Tarret 00:13, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Per WP:NOT an indiscriminate collection of information or a punctuation fetishist's audio playground. Create List of postmen I have known instead? QuagmireDog 19:55, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Perhaps List of everyone named Bob? Delete per nom. JPG-GR 07:13, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * You see, if only I'd thought of that..QuagmireDog 09:13, 3 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep The notorious article on the heavy metal umlaut is evidence that bands are playful with orthography. I used this article yesterday when trying to recall the name of Sunn 0))). Would it be better as a category? -- or as a discursive article? Omassey 09:53, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment A discursive article sounds an interesting prospect, but this is unlikely to form the basis of it. Warofdreams talk 16:22, 3 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep It doesn't seem to me like any cruft so much as a reference point, useful because it links throughout the site. I could argue that the list serves as a platform for interested users to link between these bands and see what they have in common. At least it's useful for checking to make sure you know how many exclaimation points there are in Gravy Train!!!!. Electronique 14:36, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
