VfD note

This article previously survived a VfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Music at sporting events. BD2412 T 14:05, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Wow, how did it survive? It needs either major revisions with loads of - unfortunately, original - research; OR it needs to be greatly shortened and completely generalized because it is too ambitious. That's just my opinion as a sports historian. Another option would just be to add a section on "stadium music" on the wiki entries for each sport. This topic alone could be a book, let alone a Wikipedia entry. Kelelain (talk) 02:46, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

"This topic alone could be a book" seems to be an argument for having more of an article rather than less of one. Many topics worthy of encyclopedic coverage are of that quality, which is why this is basically an overview article. bd2412 T 16:59, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

"Charge fanfare"

From the basketball music section: "For example, the announcers often play a "charge" bugle call to accompany the home team" Should "charge" link to Charge (fanfare) (which is short on links to it)? Or is there a different song? Just curious.--71.17.49.67 03:43, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I've made the adjustment. Robert K S 16:00, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Washington Redskins have there very own marching band. They are only one of two NFL team to have an official marching band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.43.179.142 (talk) 03:57, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Merge discussion

Whilst I think Entrance music is a suitable topic of mention on Wikipedia, I don't see how it's fundamentally different from this topic. Currently it's a list of songs that people walk out too, rather than the actual concept of the entrance music itself, which is not really discussed by many sources other than listicles that I found. There is some cross-pollination for Music in professional wrestling where we obviously have a lot of walk-on music. In short, I think the articles aren't broadly different, despite there being room for one good article out of these spaces. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 07:49, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
