Redundant to List of punk rock bands, 0–K and List of punk rock bands, L–Z. The additional qualifier "styles" is completely unreferenced. Nothing here needs to be merged, so I'm proposing to delete instead. Binksternet (talk) 15:47, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

- Delete - In complete agreement with the nominator on redundancy and the unsupported use of "styles". ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 19:31, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - Article redundant when better quality lists already exist. Lflin16 - Member of Recent Changes Patrol (talk) 20:59, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: Poor original research and useless outline. Why? I Ask (talk) 21:34, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Yep. No real need for this list when comprehensive lists already exist. Rupples (talk) 01:41, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
- Comment - As a punk fan since 1979, record collector, zine publisher, and label dude, I have some expertise in the subject matter. The list is not bad, nor is the breakdown into subgenres in any substantial way "original" or incorrect. What may well be a compelling case against this particular list is its redundancy to List of punk rock bands, 0–K and List of punk rock bands, L–Z, mentioned by Binksternet above.
