Should such a short list even stay?

The reason I redirected this article and moved its content to the D♭ tuning article is because this list is so short, with only 10 sourced bands. It doesn't even make sense to keep such a short list of 10 bands that use the tuning in one article, and I personally think how long an article should be matters as much as its sources. I chose the D♭ tuning article because of its relation, similar to drop B with the only difference being the low string. So what do you think, should we find more reliably sourcing for bands that use drop B or go my original way of redirecting the article and keeping the sourced drop B bands in the D♭ tuning article?

@SirZPthundergod9001: In my view, the redirection was simply out-of-process. For an 8-year old article that has been existing pretty peacefully, it should probably go through WP:AFD. JBchrch talk 12:30, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think that's a reasonable solution....SirZPthundergod9001 (talk) 12:32, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
