I believe such guidelines are effectively a good guide for keeping,
not deletion.  If we could have a speedy keep criterion for the topic,
and so forth.

In other words, if the WP:MUSIC guidelines spit out 'Yes, is notable',
we should pretty much always keep the article.  However, if the
article fails WP:MUSIC, it is not an automatic delete, since other
factors might make the article worthwhile.
