Individual Notability?

edit

Sorry everyone, I am a big fan of The Warning and wrote a sizeable chunk of their article, but I simply don't think that Alejandra has enough personal accomplishments to merit her own article. Per WP:BANDMEMBER: "Members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability." All of Alejandra's accomplishments so far are within the band, and her article here merely repeats content from their article while trying (pretty desperately) to beef things up with trivia about her gear. Note that her sister Paulina has more to work with, given her individual notice in various drumming magazines, but Alejandra's article should be redirected back to the band. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:52, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

I agree with you. When creating the article for Paulina I was fighting with Wiki Admins to convince them that Pau is notable enough in her own right, not just for The Warning. I finally managed to. :)
But I didn't try to make the article for Ale or for Dany, because I understand, they didn't achieve individual accomplishments. They are only famous for their band. Attis42 (talk) 18:39, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
You can delete the page if you deem necessary. TWMonty (talk) 19:48, 24 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. You found a few interesting items of info, such as the influence of Alejandra's teacher, which can be added to the band's article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 12:54, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I've already added Pablo González to the The Warning article. Thanks TWMonty for the finding. Attis42 (talk) 13:20, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks! I made a backup of Ale's page with the gear info so I can share it elsewhere with the general community. I'll take a read of the main band article at some point and see if I can contribute any relevant bits of information. TWMonty (talk) 13:35, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
