Why remove the artists? Do you know them not to be notable? 86.44.30.169 (talk) 04:42, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes i do. A band is not considered notable enough to go on a wikipedia band list unless it has its own article. This does not mean that simply creating an article for every band gives them notability, they still have to demonstrate notability on their articles--Jac16888 (talk) 12:11, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

You can't assume they aren't notable just because no one has written articles for them. 86.44.30.169 (talk) 00:11, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

You're right, but until someone does write an article for them, an article which demonstrates notability, we can't know they are notable, therefore we don't include links to non-existent articles. Plus they look untidy, and if we allow a few, eventually there will be billions of red links all over wikipedia--Jac16888 (talk) 00:15, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
