Rat Salad and Electric Funeral edit

I've already proposed the deletion of "Rat Salad" and "Electric Funeral", BUT this article seems to have some notability to it. Unlike Rat Salad which was less than a paragraph of technical description or Electric Funeral which looks like a fan's opinionated description of the song. BUT if this article isn't expanded soon I might propose it's deletion as well. --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 19:50, 8 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Well "Rat Salad" and "Electric Funeral" have been rightfully deleted through WP:AfD, but I decided "Hand of Doom" was notable enough and for now meets Wikipedia's guidelines well enough. Cheers. Mrmoustache14 (talk) 00:51, 4 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hand of Doom jammed on by Nirvana edit

I have read that Nirvana was heavily influenced by Black Sabbath, and in my search for Black Sabbath covers, I discovered that Nirvana jammed to Hand of Doom. It was never released, and I suspect it is just a studio jam which never resulted in an actual release. In any case, I thought it would be important enough to mention it in this page under the Cover Versions section.

Here's also a track of Nirvana's cover of Hand of Doom, though I cannot find many details of it.

No way. Per the guidelines, "(o)nly cover versions/renditions important enough to have gained attention in their own right should be added to song articles". In this case, Nirvana simply jammed a song that was never released, and that is nowhere close to the threshold for inclusion in the article. SolarFlashDiscussion 19:19, 27 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
