Missing genres edit

@GogoLion. Hi, here's the lists of missing pop genres, if you are still interested in making list complete. These ones are proper pop subgenres, which should be placed in the correct sections of the list:

'Popular music' articles. Some of them refer to pop-music only, some are about overall popular meta (incl. rock, r&b, soul, etc). So it worth to check the about the subject they describe - and if it's just pop, then place them to regional section (and it also worth to nominate them to renaming to plain pop if needed).

The genres which are subclasses of pop music on Wikidata. They might be real pop music genres and should be placed in proper section, or, if not, then should be placed in 'related genres' section.

+ many from the Category:Pop music genres are also missing from the list. Solidest (talk) 16:07, 30 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

The only genres that i missed are only bitpop and cringe pop. Adult Contemporary is a radio format. Bedroom pop is still debatable, as the page says "By the 2010s, journalists would indiscriminately apply "bedroom pop" for any music that sounded "fuzzy". Dark pop is not a genre, it's like "ballad pop", just a style. Neon pop-punk is explained in pop-punk section. New pop is a movement, not a genre. Pop rap is already done (see hip pop). Pop-punk also already done. Post-Britpop is rock music. There's no article about Ragga pop. Wonky pop is already done. And the rest are regional scenes, should be added in new section. -GogoLion (talk) 22:20, 30 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
