Remove 'Notable' list? edit

  • I propose that we remove the 'Notable' list from this article, and maybe move it to a separate article. See other guitar-related 'Notable' lists like Telecaster players and List of guitarists for examples. The list here is a magnet for repetitive fan-posts (Zakk Wylde, for example), has taken on a life of its own and is about to overshadow the main article, which is about the hybrid picking technique rather than the players. We can certainly expand the article to include notable proponents in context. Full disclosure: I added James Burton and Clarence White to the list a while back. Mea culpa. See related discussion at Talk:Fingerstyle guitar#Let's just delete the list of fingerstyle players, and that list was indeed deleted for the same reasons.

    • See comments here and similar discussion on Wikiproject:Guitarists talkpage archives here and here. I propose creating a new page titled List of hybrid picking guitarists and moving the 'Notable' list there as a separate article. I can draft a page similar to List of Telecaster players, which is a Featured List. Any comments are welcome, thanks. Chuckiesdad (talk) 07:14, 16 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
    • I am also guilty of adding to the list, but I agree it is overshadowing the article and needs to be moved, perhaps pioneers or really influencial artists can be mentioned in the article where appropriate.--Sabrebd (talk) 15:04, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
