Worst Music and Songs Wiki

Worst Music and Songs Wiki was a reception wiki on Miraheze focusing on bad music. It was privated in February 2022 and was officially shut down with the other Qualitipedia wikis on September 27.

Why It's One of the Worst Wikis in Existence

 * 1) To start off, the wiki is a ripoff of Horrible Music Wiki. In fact, many of its pages are copied directly from that wiki without attribution, which violates Miraheze's content policy.
 * 2) Like on HMW, some pages are immature, nitpicky, and barely describe the quality of their subject, especially ones about artists.
 * 3) A user named AlfeProblemSolverz removed deletion tags from pages about artists, although pages about people were forbidden from Qualitipedia.
 * 4) Both this wiki and Excellent Music Wiki are biased as they defend pop music and various pop or mainstream bands/artists like Avril Lavigne, Slipknot, System of a Down, Blink-182, Katy Perry, P!nk, Britney Spears and Doja Cat constantly, despite many of them being heavily flawed or going downhill.
 * 5) *Ironically, the admin(s) will accuse both anonymous and registered users of being biased, regardless if they have better points about pop/mainstream music and pop/mainstream artists/bands than professional critics or not. As any deleted pages of bands or artists who are already on EMW cover pop and radio-friendly rock music, the admin(s) don't really seem to care that music is supposed to be an art form used by people to express themselves naturally and isn't all about the money it makes. They also don't care about art, logic, intelligence, authenticity, dignity, sincerity, real emotion, anti-corporatism, real passion or real talent when they are all essential to music.
 * 6) **The "Avril Lavigne" page on HMW was created by an anonymous user but was deleted shortly after. Meanwhile, the page for Avril on EMW was locked for several months when the reason the page got marked for deletion was "She's a hypocrite and a poser!", which the admin(s) considered an opinion. The admin(s) defended Avril as "a musical icon and influential" and didn't care about how long she had been at large on multiple counts of posing and hypocrisy, which are described below:
 * 7) ***She is just a pop diva either holding a guitar in her hand or sitting in front of a piano during video shoots when she played neither instrument in the actual songs. In the "Complicated" video, for instance, Avril is only seen strumming a single guitar chord (a G-chord, even though the song is in F major). Also, the only song on her debut album where she even played an instrument was "Nobody's Fool".
 * 8) ***She rarely plays her own instruments on her albums and most of her songs are written for her by professional songwriters. The only reason she's even credited for them is because she may have contributed a line or two.
 * 9) ***Because she's a pop diva (and exactly the same as the other pop princesses she tries so hard not to be), she did not get a record deal out of pure talent. She was created and churned out by Sony Music (via Arista Records), Clear Channel (now called iHeartRadio) and MTV, who were being paid millions to try and make punk more accessible.
 * 10) ***Furthermore, it was revealed that she got popular based purely on being discovered by L.A. Reid at a local bookstore while she was performing country pop songs in Ontario, Canada.
 * 11) ***She claimed that her fans wanted "meaningful lyrics with more to them than just words that are all rhymey", but all she sings about in reality are how much she's "lonely" and "depressed" (her ballads), how much she hates her life when it's fine and thinks no one understands her (with "Complicated" and "My Happy Ending" being two good examples of this), how much she's a jerk and how obnoxious she can be, how much she hates her partner or both ("Don't Tell Me", "Complicated", "Girlfriend", "What the Hell", "Bitchin' Summer"), how she hates her detractors for thinking that she's not punk ("Rock N Roll"), how she thinks she's "anything but ordinary" or is "being herself"–despite her signing contracts with major record labels and making pop music–or how "rock" or "punk" she thinks she is ("Nobody's Fool", "Anything But Ordinary"), etc.
 * 12) ***She said "I'm not punk" sometime after she said she was in a July 2002 magazine article, which is hypocrisy. Not long after she said that she wasn't punk in a 2002 European Tour interview, she called herself a "rockstar" when her music is more overproduced than a typical rock song (which means that the live instruments cannot be heard well). Her songs also have computerized claps ("Girlfriend", "I Don't Have to Try" and "The Best Damn Thing" from the titular album), drum loops (almost all of Let Go), DJ samples (almost all of Let Go) and other electronic influences (most of which are normally not present in rock music).
 * 13) ****While she has Under My Skin (which is more post-grunge-oriented than Let Go and was released as her second studio album in 2004) and two rock songs on Let Go ("Losing Grip" and "Unwanted"), they're just not enough to warrant her categorization as a rock or punk singer.
 * 14) ***In 2013, Avril Lavigne married Chad Kroeger of the widely-reviled Nickelback, which she quickly gained infamy for. They broke up three years later.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The wiki's admins thankfully privated it because of the amount of content that was stolen.
 * 2) There were some original pages, which were imported to Horrible Music Wiki.
