The result was delete. Much as I love the band ... anything notable here belongs in the main article, which would be a merge. except for the lack of sources. Black Kite (t) (c) 00:00, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete All of this appears to be compiled with original research; none of the (2) references are significant. If you are a popular band then your music will be likely be replayed in different places. Unless someone has commented on anything specifically unusual or unique about the use of their music, this is just run-of-the-mill. Delete as original research, trivia, and listcruft.

- Keep and source. Of the above arguments, only OR is a sufficient reason to delete, and it's pretty obvious that some of the unsourced ones (e.g. use as VM theme song) are in fact correct. Jclemens (talk) 14:30, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- You really think that listing every time a band's songs have been used in the media is appropriate content for an encyclopedia? How is this preferred over a short, prose summary in the main article (perhaps a few lines in the main article stating that the group, like most bands, has had its songs replayed on the television and in movies)? Would you extend this to say that we should have similar articles for other popular (but not legendary) bands? Does all of this information together really add up to something special, or is it just what you would expect for a band of their popularity? ThemFromSpace 15:39, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into the band's main article, preferably deleting anything used in a commercial or, um, a Counter-Strike fan video. These In Popular Culture sections get unwieldy enough as it is. Several Times (talk) 18:38, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Per ThemFromSpace, its all irrlevant, non enclopedic fluff. Ceoil 21:06, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
