- Is this for real? Sounds highly dubiuos to me. delete ping 06:50, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- A one-band genre? Yeah, that's nice. Delete. Isomorphic 07:13, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Keep as redirect, since the band is relevant and the term is real. Isomorphic 09:23, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Whether it's real or not is kind of irrelevant; Wikipedia is not a place for garage bands. DO'Neil 08:57, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Redirect to Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys, whose style was described as such in the music press; it doesn't deserve its own article. The band was certainly notable enough for a Wikipedia article, however. Nothing wrong with small bands, as long as SOMEBODY has heard of them besides their friends and moms. —Morven 09:01, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Made into that redirect, in fact. Vote to keep in that form. —Morven 09:06, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Actually pornobilly is a very significant musical genre, not limited to the band referred in the redirect target. -- Cimon 10:42, Apr 20, 2004 (UTC)
- Very significant? I don't think so; maybe a handful of bands at most, according to a quick Google. Maybe it is getting enough currency to have its own article, then. —Morven 18:48, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- I can confirm that it exists; I remember reading (in a free tabloid 'scene' weekly) someone call Bodeco "pornobilly," so Buck Naked ain't the only one. Smerdis of Tlön 18:23, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- I have also heard Mojo Nixon and Nashville Pussy referred to as Pornobilly. (This isn't a vote, just for your information :)) Adam Bishop 16:18, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Ditto for Alligator Dave. Rhymeless 05:19, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- If this genre is legitimate, it shouldn't redirect to one specific band's article. Delete redirect. Either write a valid article, or delete altogether. Cribcage 05:45, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Agree with Cribcage, needs a real article or deletion. No redirect. -- Cyrius|✎ 20:00, Apr 24, 2004 (UTC)
