Wikipedia:WikiProject Alternative music

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Project
The Alternative music WikiProject is a project, created on April 16, 2006, that helps to assemble editors interested in alternative rock and indie rock. The aim of this project is to standardize and improve articles related to alternative rock and its sub-genres, as well as to create missing articles. This project replaces WikiProject Indie music and expands its scope to cover both underground and mainstream components of alternative music. This project is not intended to cover all underground music, mainly that which developed after the advent of punk rock and has been termed "indie" or "alternative".

If you feel that you can make a positive contribution to the project, become a member by joining the list of members. If you don't know what to write or where to begin, or if you have doubts or ideas on how to improve an article, please address the project's discussion forum.

Goals
The goals of this WikiProject are:
  • To improve Wikipedia's coverage of alternative music, by creating and improving articles related to the subject.
  • Maintain and improve the rock music portal
Relatives
The parent of this WikiProject is WikiProject Music. Similar WikiProjects include: WikiProject Computer music, WikiProject Classical music, WikiProject Electronic music, WikiProject Emo music, WikiProject Industrial music, WikiProject Metal music, WikiProject New Wave music, WikiProject Punk music, and WikiProject Rock music.

The taskforces of this WikiProject are the Pixies taskforce, the Nirvana taskforce, and the Smashing Pumpkins taskforce.

The descendants of this WikiProject are, in no particular order: WikiProject Green Day, WikiProject Red Hot Chili Peppers, WikiProject Powderfinger, WikiProject Nine Inch Nails, and WikiProject Linkin Park.

Proposed deletions

  • 09 Nov 2024 – Lovestone (band) (talk · edit · hist) was PRODed by Sammi Brie (t · c): No claim to notability. The website is long dead and goes to some sort of parking page on a Finnish telecom carrier. The suggestion to listen to their only song on MySpace is indicative of the biggest problem.

Amkilpatrick (talk · contribs) I'd be happy to help where I can
ParadoxBacklash (talk · contribs) People need to be set straight about what alternative is and isn't. The majority of what I have been into for the last 30 years is goth, alternative, and most anything else that evolved from punk.

Friginator (talk · contribs) A big Zappa/Floyd fan myself, but when it comes to editing I prefer to keep an eye on newer articles and (among other things) hopefully prevent the genre-warring that seems to pop up everywhere.
Pottsduck (talk · contribs) I'm a big fan of indie pop, synth-pop, and can get into punk and folk as well but mostly I enjoy any band that's truly invested in doing their own thing and are enjoying themselves in the process. I'll help out wherever I can.
Peaky76 (talk · contribs) Mainly British stuff, especially New Wave, late 80s/early 90s stuff (Wedding Present, Carter USM etc), chamber pop and nu-folk
