Coinage, DYK[edit]

In Dance of Days, it says that the term bent edge was coined by DC punk old-timer Micro here.

Also, this article looks like it would make a good Did You Know article. Any ideas for a hook? Gobonobo ^T ^C 07:21, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I already submitted it to DYK :) it can be found here ; however, if you can think of a better hook then mine I will add an alt1. I will see how i can add in micro to this article. --Guerillero | My Talk 15:27, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Subjective Tone[edit]

This article has a subjective tone throughout. Its content appears to be minimal minimal. As does its relevance. See sentences such as: "This hurt Ian Mackaye because everyone was supposed to be part of the DC scene not just straight edge kids." Really? In an encyclopedia?

SOFIXIT comes to mind. The article does need a copy edit for tone. As for the content, there are only a few small sources to work with. --Guerillero | My Talk 15:48, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

this needs to be merged with straight edge. CombatMarshmallow (talk) 17:23, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. If no one disagrees I'm merging the two.Hoponpop69 (talk) 19:55, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Bent Edge has been covered enough for its own article -- Guerillero ^{Parlez Moi} 20:11, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
