I love tyrolean black death underground rap as much as the next guy, but this seems like a vanity page. Rhobite 19:57, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC)

Delete. and delete the media files too? Kenwarren 21:42, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC)

  • DELETE and especially the fact that it tossed in "bootleg" files. Not good. Not good. Geogre 21:48, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, and send the guy a few Euros to buy a new shift key. And a pity about the picture, I was imagining someone in lederhosen rapping over the high Alpine meadows. Ianb 21:50, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • You're in luck, because the same editor also wrote a page on Alpenscooter Rhobite 22:12, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC)
      • omg. Isn't there some EU regulation against this kind of stuff? Hear the mp3, cast your vote below. Ianb 22:56, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete Mcking, MC KING, McKing, and Mc King. All four articles are devoted to the same non-notable rapper, who can't even be distinguished in a web search. And as for the media files, isn't that a blatant copyvio? Or is it one of those fuzzy "used with permission" situations? --Ardonik 04:35, Jul 20, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete all, vanity article, redirects, and media files. Wile E. Heresiarch 04:12, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Yeah, I actually don't much care for tyrolean black death underground rap or its perpetrators, but the point here is that the WikiPedia must not become full up of such blatant vanity and advertising. No, because that space has a much more important use - lots of lists of things. -- Brequinda 17:24, Jul 20, 2004 (BST)
  • Does the fact that it's Tyrolean black death underground rap require one to yodel? I can't wait to play one of the files for some people I know. Delete all. Redirects, ogg files, everything. That photo doesn't make me particularly sympathetic, BTW. - Lucky 6.9 22:44, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)


hey people, i know these artists from my area in so i thought i bring em in here. fact is they develop cultural goods, even if many of you dont like them. and they are happy if somewhere is written bout them! chill! the mcking BOOTLEGS are legal from mcking´s own will. still its bootlegs, recorded when mcking didnt know it - with a tape recorder on a private party.

  • hey Grasier, we're so chilled icicles form on our keyboards ;-). It's not the music, it's that the artists aren't well known and don't meet the criteria for inclusion: if they need promotion, it means they aren't ready for Wikipedia yet. Ianb 21:48, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete all related material. Wikipedia is not a musical vanity press. -- Cyrius| 01:50, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete all related material. The Alpenscooter stuff too! --K. Sperling 10:31, 2004 Jul 23 (UTC)
