If you look at the heavy metal genre template, there is a section below titled "Regional Genres", all 3 of which are a large progenity and early carnation of Heavy Metal music. Bay Area thrash metal is indeed one of them, and every websource will confirm that. If you check the history of the person who made the suggestion, you will notice this user has added pointless AFD/Merge tags to other heavy metal articles. (Not surprisingly, votes from everyone are overwhelmingly not in favor of their proposal.) In addition, the user is including unsourced and unverified claims in various Wikipedia articles ( 1 2), a most blatant defiance of the site policy Wikipedia:Cite sources . -- Danteferno 23:01 7 December (UTC)
I reference people to the fact Dante has 'Meglomanic Point of View' and suffers from 'Possesion of Articles' syndrome. The reason for merging, if Dante would of cared to ask (which he never does), is that this article is three paragraphs long, that would be much better menitoned in the Thrash Metal article, and would add greatly to BOTH articles. Which is the reason for most merges. Leyasu 00:06, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Tag removed again - no discussion on the thrash metal page, none here. Silly and pointless to merge, IMO 04:35, 25 April 2006 (UTC) (forgot to sign my name Skeletor2112 09:32, 12 May 2006 (UTC) )
The problem as I see it is that there these kind of articles tend to be very short, with a one-paragraph description and a bandlist that keeps getting added to and removed from. So imo, a better approach is to add these paragraphs to a parent article ( thrash metal in this case) and if the particular section bulges out of its parent turn it into a separate article, keeping a summary in the parent along with a link. Another point is that most of the main metal-genre (such as death metal, black metal, etc - thrash metal is actaully one of the better ones) articles are terribly written, biased and overlooking a lot of important bands and albums. Now Bay Area thrash is a notable scene which has more or less become synonymous with thrash. Articles like new york thrash metal, teutonic thrash metal are less important and too restrictive. (NYTM, for example includes a major band being from New Jersey) Teutonic is even worse. Half the bands Pinkkeit mentioned aren't German (in several places), whereas the scene was labelled german (More properly I guess Teutonic refers to the middle-ages Germanic tribes and not to Germany and hence to most of northern/western Europe). Moreover in Europe there were many more important thrash metal bands, like Sabbat, Onslaught (UK), Coronor (Switzerland), Massacra, Agressor (France), Artillery (denmark), LWS, Thanatos, Pestilence (netherlands).

This must be one of the worst-written article on WP. It only has a summary and a conclusion. And is more about other genres (such death metal, groove metal) than thrash. The first section seems to be totally biased towards metallica. Spearhead 16:14, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Due to no significant discussion I removed the tags. There has been no talk on this for nearly two months, and also no follow-up to my message dated 07/26/06, 00:58. If there's anything the article needs, its probably some cited references, which can be provided, but there's absolutely no problem with neutrality. -- Danteferno 14:04, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Since when were Megadeth and Slayer Bay Area bands? They're from L.A., and as far as I know, have never lived in the Bay Area. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.118.149 ( talk) 02:46, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Slayer originate from Huntington Park. Metallica are from L.A., along with Megadeth. 86.144.243.206 ( talk) 14:48, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

"go on to play in some of these bands (some of these guitarists would include Exodus's Rick Hunolt, Testament's Alex Skolnick, and Metallica's Kirk Hammett)."
