Papa Wheelie
Does not meet guidelines of WP:MUSIC for inclusion on Wikipedia -Nv8200p talk 16:55, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep  Keep  (failing that merge) In what way does this article not satisfy WP:MUSIC? It clears Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such. Jason Newsted was the bassist for Metallica, playing bass on ...And Justice for All their grammy nominated album. He's also part of that reality show Rock Star: Supernova. The article needs work, but I think the subject passes muster. Dina 17:22, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Maybe it should be redirected to Jason Newsted instead. -Nv8200p talk 17:49, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I could live with that. I'd prefer a merge. There's no article on his label Chophouse records, or I'd suggest putting the content there.  Meh, I'll change to weak keep, maybe merge and see what other folks have to say. Dina 17:56, 23 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep Absolutely meets WP:MUSIC. I wonder if Nv8200p has read WP:MUSIC lately, because it clearly states only one criteria is needed, and there are at least two here, including the release of two albums. A redirect is not appropriate, because this is not a side project from Jason Newsted alone, and a redirect does not take into consideration other members of the band.Guyanakoolaid 23:04, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The full criteria is "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." I'm not sure that Chophouse Records qualifies as either. -Nv8200p talk 18:10, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
