Intended to make it easier to look up less prominent musicians/bands on Facebook.

Automatically removes search results whose categories do not match a whitelist (or which instead match a blacklist), specified below in userscript. By default the script will use the whitelist, and the lists include these categories:

whitelist:

  • Artist
  • Band
  • Musician
  • Musician/Band
  • Performing Arts

blacklist:

  • Arts & Entertainment
  • Athlete
  • Author
  • Blogger
  • Book
  • Comedian
  • Dancer
  • Entrepreneur
  • Fictional Character
  • Movie Character
  • News Personality
  • Photographer
  • Producer
  • Professional Gamer
  • Public Figure
  • Sports & Recreation
  • Ticket Sales
  • Writer

These lists are not comprehensive; edit the script to change the whitelist/blacklist contents to whatever you wish. Indicate which list should be used by specifying its variable name in the assignment operation for the listToUse variable declaration/assignment on line 14 (e.g. var listToUse = 'blacklist'; if you want to remove results which match the blacklist, instead of removing results which do not match the whitelist.)
