Proposed merge of Vince White into The Clash[edit]

No real notability outside a brief stint in the Clash. No word on what he did after leaving. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 23:24, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose merger. That article should simply be deleted. I don't mind the name appearing in this article, as it already is, but there doesn't appear to be anything notable or worth keeping at Vince White. CAVincent (talk) 04:40, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, aside from Mick, Joe, Paul, Terry, Topper and Keith (the latter b/c of PIL), none of the articles on individual musicians appear worth keeping. CAVincent (talk) 04:54, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
