Yeah I know how to dig it up, I was just wondering why the removal in the first place. I checked the guy who removed the page and he seems like a full-time wikipedia admin.
Can we like petition them or something? If this is just somebody's whim, we better act up on it sooner than later.
I'm not sure wikipedia is supposed to function that way.

I read the guy's post where he complained that the sources the article quotes aren't reliable. I think he need to have his head staved in. Go for it iLKke!

Shouldn't it go like, help improve this article by bla bla, suggested for deletion on the basis of bla bla, etc?

I think several of us should send some complaints together or something.
Let me see if I can figure out how it's done...

We'll have to get LSDJ, Milktracker, et al. on an episode of Family Guy in order for it to be of relevance to the guys that edit Wikipedia.

WOW MAN!
I personally think it's a fucking ridiculous situation. Nice that someone's hard work (10 years in the case of LSDJ!) can be rendered irrelevant by these idiots and then you've got this;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonas_Brothers
or this;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Kids_on_the_Block
or this;

Look on the brightside, maybe they'll hit the dubstep article soon.

Well, Wikipedia is all about notability. GoatTracker isn't really known outside of a small set of people, and there are no mainstream sources reporting on it that I know of. LSDj is a bit more known, but still quite esoteric. Should be notable enough for an article though, IMO, and there seems to be some agreement about that.
