Non notable genre. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:49, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
- Note - See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Fabloo bands. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:56, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete No use of the term in any sort of RS found, some mis-spellings pop up in old medical journals in GScholar. Oaktree b (talk) 16:09, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

- Delete - The genre term is meaningless until it is widely discussed by professional music journalists and other reliable sources. This one is equivalent to an inside joke among scenesters, and does not qualify for an encyclopedia. Nobody has ever used the term except a few bands and some of their fans. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:54, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Hardly a genre, more in in-joke among a very few musicians. Saying the sources are unimpressive is a gross understatement.TheLongTone (talk) 14:32, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Tally Hall: The term is at the top of their page as their self-described genre, so there is a very valid redirect. I am not opposed to a small section about it about on their page, either, but sourcing currently is lacking for that. I would also preemptively say to keep the page starred in case we need to lock the redirect. Why? I Ask (talk) 13:25, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Tally Hall - lacks the coverage to pass WP:GNG but is a plausible search term. Would also support delete and redirect. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:31, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Tally Hall. Fabloo is not notable, but appears to largely be associated with the band. I'm not seeing any reliable sources in my search for the term. TipsyElephant (talk) 21:56, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

- Redirect to Tally Hall. If ever coverage comes along that isn't the crap this article currently has then a section on that band's article would be appropriate, but I see no point in a merge vote based on the available material. QuietHere (talk) 22:52, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Tally Hall; no coverage from reliable sources establishes this as a notable source. OhNoitsJamie Talk 01:41, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: It's looking pretty WP:SNOWy for a redirect, so I went ahead and did it. No reason to have someone else comment the same thing. If someone opposes, then go ahead and undo my edit. If not, then please close. Why? I Ask (talk) 02:04, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
