Talk:Backwash

Is it necessary for this (and other Lobby music bands) to have its own page?
Currently, there's been three pages out of twelve made for these bands that are credited with making Splatoon 3's Lobby music, and they're all extremely short since there's hardly any information about these bands whatsoever. They all only have one song each, all share the same album art, and there's absolutely no "lore" or any other external information existing about them as far as I can tell. (Admittedly, that last one may somehow change with the release of Splatune 3, but it seems a bit unlikely to me.)

In my opinion having each band all have their own individual pages seems a bit superfluous, so I wanted to suggest the idea of perhaps moving them all to a single page, like "Minor Bands" or something along those lines, or maybe even just keeping them as unlinked information in the infoboxes on the song pages considering the lack of information on them to write a page about.

Of course, I can already see a potential argument against this idea, since it would involve having to pick somewhere to draw the line with when a band stops counting as "minor", which might seem arbitrary considering most bands in the series only have 2 songs each to begin with, and some even also only have a single song. But in my eyes the determining factor is more in the fact that these bands have no individual "identity" to them -- again, they all have the same album art, and there's no suggestion of them having specific characters acting as band members unlike other bands in the series. Any information that exists about a single Lobby music band is basically exactly the same as every other Lobby music band, it's just "This band has a single song that plays in the Lobby sometimes". I'm not sure what other people might think about this suggestion but to me I think it would be a bit neater than just having a bunch of nearly empty (and practically impossible to expand) pages for the sake of having nearly empty pages.

 * Exactly what i'm thinking as well. They're extremely short and lack any important content. All the pages should be merged, some of the lobby music artists literally share the same album picture. We should do the same thing we did for the Anarchy Poisons. 12:52, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
