Years are nonstandard for bands
[citation needed] — GhostInTheMachine talk to me 18:04, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- @GhostInTheMachine for short descriptions, I have never seen another for a band article that included the years of the band. I see 'em all the time for individuals' birth/death years, but not for a band's foundation/disbandment years. Seems less essential to me than the genre, and there's only so much room to work with.

- OK, so there is no actual policy about this, just common usage. Sometimes the active years do make sense — GhostInTheMachine talk to me 18:12, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- @GhostInTheMachine as far as I'm aware, there are no policies about shortdesc content. There are guidelines, but they don't appear to be super specific. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 18:15, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
