Delete. Seems to be a neologism, and while I turned up some hits on the term, the fact that it is used does not make it notable. It is presented as a neologism in the article, which does not itself claim "porn rock" is any distinct genre or sub-genre. Since it is not a notable music genre or sub-genre, and it does not have notability as a neologism, the article should be deleted.

Delete Non-notable neologism, not an actual genre or even sub-genre. I have never heard the term used in reference to any of the more notable artists listed. —

Delete: What a ridiculous article, even if it were real the fact it is so obscure and small means it would not satisfy the criteria for inclusion. –

Comment Redirect wouldn't be appropriate as the article is not about a single band, but about many bands loosely gathered into a newly defined genre.

But the article would be gone if we turn it into a redirect. I'm saying that the best use for the namespace 'Porn Rock' is to redirect it to the band that used to be known as that. -

Not a bad suggestion, but I think that Delete is long overdue. This article dates from nearly three years ago, when people didn't worry about such things as "sources" and "citations".

Delete the unreferenced article then create a Redirect to
Erocktica as suggested by Richard.

Delete, at best this is a buzzword which never caught on by the sounds of it. Therefore unverifiable. - filelakeshoe 02:16, 21 November 2008 (UTC)reply
