On 8 May 2023, it was proposed that this article be moved to WSP (disambiguation). The result of the discussion was not moved.

Widespread Panic abbreviated as WSP

The American jam band Widespread Panic is abbreviated in writing as WSP by fans and music collectors (as well as journalists and many others) very frequently. Below are a number of online sources that show this:

http://www.panicstream.com/ ("Today in WSP History")
http://www.jambase.com/article/widespread-panic-celebrates-50th-consecutive-red-rocks-sellout ("“Arleen” saw WSP aided by tour manager Steve Lopez on percussion.") - journalist example
https://www.vividseats.com/concerts/widespread-panic-tickets.html ("Look through the WSP tour schedule at the top of the page until you find a concert taking place in a city near you.") - ticket reseller
http://liveforlivemusic.com/news/widespread-panic-brings-special-guests-nye-bust-outs-nashville/ ("calling on special guests throughout three full sets of music from WSP." + many other examples in the article) - another journalist
http://week4paug.net/index.php?topic=8330.0 (all throughout the first post) - this is a fan forum and admittedly, mostly a humorous post but regardless fans do in fact refer to the band as WSP in writing a lot (probably more than "Widespread Panic") and there is some validity to the post.
https://jam.buzz/instant-classic-listen-widespread-panic-bust-explosive-l-woman-first-time-since-1997/ ("PanicStream.com reports that there have been a whopping 1,462 shows since WSP played the Doors classic last.") - yet another journalist--Sk8punk3d288 (talk) 02:35, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
