All marked for deletion, due to against policy. However, I am no personally 100% behind the policy, especially with articles like this which are well written and detailed - notably these all occur "in-show" and characters hear it, and so you could argue not background music anyway.--{{User:Cook879/sig}} 16:47, 9 July 2012 (EDT)

Feels like this is just a generic Cafe, with the window saying "Food" as in it serves food.

:The way I interpreted that policy was that background music was music that the characters couldn't actually hear, i.e. it's playing during the scene, but not ''in'' the scene. So, therefore it would be considered "out of universe", as compared to music that the characters are physically listening to, which is "in universe". There's my two-cents, anyway. (edit) Regardless of the outcome of this, I think the policy page could be a little more "descriptive" (can't think of a better word), so that this issue doesn't come up in the future. --[[User:Nick97|'''<font color=darkorange>Nick97</font>''']] <sup>([[User talk:Nick97|<font color=peach>'''talk'''</font>]] ~ [[Special:Contributions/Nick97|<font color=turquoise>'''contribs'''</font>]])</sup>  20:24, 9 July 2012 (EDT)

:::See [[music production]] for the six types of music on the show. To me, source and "Broadway-style" music is in-universe, whereas underscore, scourse, montages and format cues are out-universe.

Cafe Food[edit]

Feels like this is just a generic Cafe, with the window saying "Food" as in it serves food. It doesn't seem like a name to me, so it's against the notability policy. The Solar Dragon 17:28, October 22, 2024 (EDT)
