So the article was kept after the AfD, but it still has no reliable sources talking about the genre. There was a short bit on Allmusic, but what else is there about the genre? Most of the article's space was a list of examples taken from iTunes (explicitly named in WP:ALBUMAVOID). The rest is just pulled from the Telegraph article saying Dylan was a key member of the alternative folk movement. It doesn't say he "typified the movement" as the only bit of non-quote said. — Rhododendritestalk \\ 14:06, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
What we have now is a coat rack of bands and links to disambiguation pages. I fear a mass cull when the individual articles are checked for reference to this "music genre". The Bannertalk17:10, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
