This particular Facebook feature is an utter mess. What about all the pages set up for artists/entities/etc that have died/ceased to exist. There may be nobody to transfer them to. The official answer is not to create them, which makes the whole "pages" concept very incomplete.

Facebook should either allow anyone to create a fan page unless/until an official one exists or axe the whole concept until they have thought it through properly.

Nick, what are the legal implications of creating a branded page that isn't yours?

Something like coolspotters.com has "fan pages" and companies don't seem to want to claim ownership of them.

Shoot me an email at mwilson1 AT alum DOT bryant DOT edu and let me know what you think.
