Music of Europe

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

This article is devoid of meaningful content. It's just a list of geographical names. It was created in February 2005 but never developed. There are already many other articles on aspects of European music, so notability is not really relevant here. The problem of the article was discussed on the Music project here.

 * Delete Redundant to existing articles. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 01:43, 30 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete completely broad topic that could never be covered in one article. It would be like saying "Music of Asia". Michellecrisp (talk) 01:55, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete far too broad--essentially a dab page in disguise. JJL (talk) 02:16, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete A notable topic but the article doesn't really help. Steve Dufour (talk) 03:37, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Almost impossible to write as a single article. We would need to cover everything from Neanderthal vocalisations through the Classical Greeks to Beethoven to the boy band phenomenon and beyond. The Music of Europe template at the end of the article is sufficient to provide links to the various countries covered in the sections of the article.

 * Delete per above. As nominator notes, this really is a list of geographical names, with someone's personal vision of how to divide Europe ("Western european music includes the music of Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.")
