[edit] Alternative synth
A musical genre that almost certainly does not exist. A google search for the words "alternative synth" throw up a few usages of the phrase "alternative synthpop", although not much, and alternative synths, referring to synthesisers, but no mention of this as a genre. Surely any genre could have 'alternative' placed on the front? 'synth' isn't really much of a genre, so much as a description, in the same way I could invent 'Loud Alternative Black Gothic Christian Synth Metal'. The only link to this page on the rest of Wikipedia is a list of music genres. Oh, and, it is unsourced, furthering my belief that the genre does not exist outside this user's media library. Delete from me. J Milburn 00:34, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:V - appears to be something made up in school one day. Note that the "founder" of Alternate synth, H-sie, is 14 years old. Incidentally, I suggest we delete that page as well. --Hyperbole 00:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete/Speedy delete, fails google test as well as the listed bands. Assumed as "nonsense". - Tutmosis 00:47, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete I don't know if it's non-sense but should be deleted as it fails WP:V. TSO1D 01:32, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per above, plus the music sounds boring anyway (ha!)--Tainter 02:48, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per above. MER-C 03:30, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, completely unsourced (WP:V), despite requests. Odd vanity article on the 'inventor' calls the validity of the subject article into question. 'Loud Alternative Black Gothic Christian Synth Metal' sounds intriguing, though. Kuru talk 03:39, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Appears non-notable and unverifiable. —ShadowHalo 06:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

- Delete' Well first off verifiability is a problem here and per above. — Arjun 16:00, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - Unverifiable as this is essentially a neologism. I too am curious about LABGCSM :) Orderinchaos78 16:26, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete it does not appear to be a real genre (hoax?) or, if not an outright hoax, would then badly fail notability. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 17:15, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, per above ::mikmt 18:43, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, violates WP:V. Realkyhick 06:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
