Contested PROD without an explanation; an assorted list of WP:TRIVIA (the use of a relatively popular instrument in a rock song is not notable). Any actual notable use, such as by Rufus Harley or Sinfonia with Bagpipe and Hurdy-Gurdy by Mozart, can be incorporated into the bagpipe article. Why? I Ask ( talk) 20:08, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

- Comment: My favourite entry:
Though not actual bagpipes, the Scottish band Big Country would often use guitars that, by the use of electronics, were very similar sounding to bagpipes.
Why? I Ask ( talk) 22:01, 9 December 2022 (UTC) - Delete - Not only is the entire list just comprised of trivia, there are no reliable sources to indicate that the overall topic is notable to begin with. Rorshacma ( talk) 17:46, 10 December 2022 (UTC)
- Keep only sourceable items. Admittedly this list is over the top, but the topic does exist:
The 10 best uses of bagpipes in rock,
Rock songs featuring bagpipes,
Bagpipes: A Rock-and-Roll History (Atlantic Monthly). This is covered briefly in the article on
Bagpipes and I will add sources there. I see a list being useful, but only if sourced. I suspect that most of this is original research.

- Then it would need to be Bagpipes in rock (or List of bagpipe use in rock) if that is the only thing able be sourced. That leads me to vote delete nonetheless since the page title is not a good redirect and there is no information on there worth saving. Why? I Ask ( talk) 20:43, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - Trivial and poorly sourced. Not opposed Lamona's idea, but agree that that would be an entirely different article and the current article title shouldn't really redirect to whatever we'd name that hypothetical article. Sergecross73 msg me 00:29, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
