this page needs to be deleted. it is totally unecesary and confuses things. A buskers nation of origin has little to do with were they busk. Heuy Lewis did most of his busking in europe as did many other american buskers. A buskers nationality can easily be determined from his page. This page just serves to obfuscarate things. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.65.109.104 (talkcontribs)

It has the same value as other national categories: it facilities navigation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by edton (talkcontribs)

Determining inclusion

edit

I am not so sure how inclusion is determined in this category. There are a lot of people here who are known at least partially for being current or former buskers, but there are also a lot of people here who are mainstream artists who seem to be included only because they played in Bryant Park this one time in 1972. -Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 06:20, 1 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Since this deals with Americans, shouldn't the term "Street Performer" be used, instead of "busker"? I have an extensive vocabulary, but I have never seen this term or heard it used in the United States. Horologium t-c 17:53, 16 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
