Xmal Deutschland
[edit]
Latest comment: 3 years ago6 comments2 people in discussion
I just added Xmal Deutschland. Their Wiki article states "Founded in 1980 with a completely female line-up...". They might of added a male or two along the way, would this disqualify them from the list? Bikini Kill comes to mind, although their situation is the opposite-they had a boy member when they started, but their current iteration is male-free, I believe, and I don't see them here. Or maybe that's an oversight? What exactly are the rules here? I know a band has to have a Wiki article to qualify for this list, but obviously there are complications. -- Pete Best Beatles (talk) 14:37, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Pete Best Beatles The article lead states: A band is a group of musicians who are organized for ensemble playing. An all-female band is a band which has consisted entirely of female musicians for at least three-quarters of its active career. Unless I am reading the Xmal Deutschland article incorrectly, it seems that that it is not the case that they qualify for this list. Specific dates would be helpful. From what I can gather, they were all female from 1980-82. Then they were mixed gender from 1982 onward to 1990 when they disbanded. So it seems doubtful that they qualify as an all-female band, and that addition should be removed. Netherzone (talk) 16:45, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the quick response, that's what I needed to know. They have been removed. (I guess that 3/4 rule explains Bikini Kill's omission too, huh?) -- Pete Best Beatles (talk) 17:09, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Pete Best Beatles - the guidelines for inclusion and non-inclusion in the article are located in the lead section of the article. Netherzone (talk) 17:23, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I had skimmed it, but obviously not thoroughly enough. Actually, my comment about Bikini Kill wasn't about the rules but their application to that specific band and their different historical boy/girl ratios. Pete Best Beatles (talk) 23:02, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
