While this was a list of inactive DCI corps, we had a well-defined list article with clear criteria. With the change by Argonne73 to include non-member corps, we have a scope issue. What's the threshold for including a corps that wasn't in DCI? I can see a mention being justified if they placed in a predecessor competition (and if there are RS, obviously), but where's the line? —C.Fred (talk) 17:19, 16 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
@C.Fred: It would be helpful if the scope of the article can be clarified a bit by establishing some kind of WP:LSC. In addition, there’s also lots of WP:Namechecking and extraneous biographical information about various individuals throughout the article and most of it’s unsourced. Individuals who played significant roles in the groups should be mentioned, but such mentions should also be supported by citations. These mentions shouldn’t also be an attempt to try snd create mini-biographies for these people within this article per WP:COATRACK. — Marchjuly (talk) 00:09, 18 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

There is a lot that could (and probably needs to be) merged or added here, but how do we prevent it from coming too large? I vote to have selection criteria be a simple three or more finals appearances (e.g., Suncoast Sound, Velvet Knight, etc.). Why? I Ask (talk) 06:13, 8 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
If we went with this approach, these would be the Drum Corps included in in this page,
