Melodic rock

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)


 * No citations, just original research. Someone has taken an adjective and stuck it in front of a defined music genre to try and create something that doesn't exist. Melodic rock is just plain old Rock music. (see WP:NFT)
 * Would also add List of melodic rock bands to the AfD nom. Libs (talk) 19:59, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete non-existant. Seeing as most of the bands named in the article belong to either the hard rock or arena rock genres, a possible redirect to any of those would be plausible. Doc StrangeMailbox Logbook 22:57, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as unsourced OR an, quite possibly, WP:Complete Bollocks. Eddie.willers (talk) 01:40, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - I will take care of this article. It is a valid genre of music that is becoming increasingly popular. Weatherman90 (talk) 00:51, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - It is my favorite genre. Nothing in the arts should ever be deleted. Shootemupwiki (talk) 01:38, 7 July 2008 (UTC)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.187.42.105 (talk)

 * Note to the closing admin - Transparently suspicious keep. Scarian  Call me Pat!  02:33, 7 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete--Not enough sources or citations. All someone's opinion.  The sources are too one sided and their reliability is questionable.   You have a section "MelodicRock in the United States" with all of the info from outside the United States. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DeeAee (talk • contribs)
 * Delete per nom. It's just rock. The list of melodic rock bands can be re-directed to one of the more valid rock lists. Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 02:11, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - It describes a type a music. AOR is too broad so MR should exist. —Preceding unsigned comment added by StonecoldMR (talk • contribs) 03:22, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Note - New account again. Scarian  Call me Pat!  12:19, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Should I put a ""not a ballot" template somewhere? Seeing as people are supposedly are being told to vote here via a message board. Doc StrangeMailbox Logbook 15:13, 7 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - Per nom. Pure fancruft: WP:NFT Scarian  Call me Pat!  12:20, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
