List of black metal genres
Complete mess, written from 1st person point of view, already plenty of info at Black metal. --Szabo 20:18, Jan 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. Firstly, bad articles want fixing, NOT deleting. Yes, the existing article is awful but that's not a reason to delete it - the article has the potential to be encyclopedic. It should be noted that this article is linked to from Template:Blackmetal. We need someone who's knowledgeable about the subject to create at least a good stub.

 * Delete Doesn't seem to be an article at all. hydnjo talk 22:05, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, this is not an article. Wyss 22:28, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, if the Sub-genres section of Black metal ever gets too huge, it can be split off. Until then, we don't need this. &mdash;Stormie 22:32, Jan 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, agree with Stormie. Rje 02:39, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, unnecessary list. Megan1967 03:10, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. David Johnson's argument that the list is linked to from the template is a good one, but it it not good enough.  The subsection of Black metal, as noted by Stormie, makes this article unnecessary.   &rarr;I&ntilde;g&#333;lemo&larr;   (talk)  03:38, 2005 Jan 6 (UTC)
 * Delete, it's junk -- why not speedy? ;Bear 19:41, 2005 Jan 6 (UTC)
 * Delete. I would have speedied it.  We should have a list of black metal genres, but what is there now is in no way a step towards making it. Tuf-Kat 23:39, Jan 6, 2005 (UTC)
