Restoration to a page about the artist

I recommend that this page be changed back to a page about Jim Lindberg, instead of redirecting to the band he was formally a member of. It would make more sense to have it actually related to the topic, rather than the band he's no longer in. Julianmh (talk) 20:19, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Read WP:MUSIC to see why the article is a redirect. Nouse4aname (talk) 10:34, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Where on WP:MUSIC does it say it's a redirect? Jim is not in Pennywise anymore, but does that mean his page here shouldn't be un-redirected? 69.12.166.40 (talk) 02:56, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

From WP:MUSIC: "Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article." Just because he has left the band does not make him automatically independently notable. His notability stems from his work with Pennywise and as such the article is redirected to this band. Until he demostrates independent notability, it will remain this way.

I sorta don't agree with why he should be redirected to the Pennywise article, he's not in the band anymore. He was with the band for more than 20 years, so he does seem to be independently notable enough. So case closed, let's keep the article un-redirected. 69.12.166.40 (talk) 19:44, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How exactly does anything you have said there demonstrates notability independent of the band? Face it, he fails WP:MUSIC, the article is redirected to the most appropiate article. Nouse4aname (talk) 21:03, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'd rather not keep this argument up, but I still disagree that his article should redirected to his former band article. 69.12.166.40 (talk) 23:02, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You may disagree, but that is simply your opinion. WP:MUSIC is more than clear about this. He is not independently notable, fails WP:MUSIC and WP:GNG. If you can reliably source some sort of independent notability then fine, but as it is, his only notability derives from his time with Pennywise, and that is the article that the page should be redirected to. It really is very simple. Please also note that the page is not being redirected because he is no longer in the band, it is being redirected because he does not demonstrate notability independent of the band neither when he was a member of now that he has left.

Jim left Pennywise months ago and you're redirecting his page to that band just because he fails WP:MUSIC? Come on, that's just bullshit.

Regardless of whether he is or is not in the band and when he may have left the band, he currently fails the necessary notability criteria at WP:MUSIC. As such he is redirected to the most relevant article - that being Pennywise. Stop reverting it. Nouse4aname (talk) 12:13, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, he's no longer in Pennywise, that's it, end of discussion. Sorry to do this to you dude, but I have to disagree with the fact that he fails to be notable here and the fact that his page should be redirected to his own band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.171.234.85 (talk) 00:09, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree all you like, you have failed to explain how he satisfies the notability guidelines at WP:MUSIC. A redirect to Pennyiwse is the only logical choice as this is where he is most recognised. Nouse4aname (talk) 18:03, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever, dude. Fuck off.
