Talk:What If (Coldplay song)

Standalone article versus redirect
I see that this article has had some reverting back and forth since WP:Articles for deletion/What If (Coldplay song) closed as merge. I saw the DRV and am following up on the recommendation to consult WP:Non-deleting deletion discussions. A discussion to overturn the AfD decision should probably be located at Talk:X&Y and framed as a split discussion. Flatscan (talk) 04:38, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I would personally support this article being given a second chance, BUT a user should work on it in his/her userspace first; I would personally be willing to undertake the task. As a procedure, once I had done all I could for the article, I would send it to WP:MfD for feedback on whether or not the article had become acceptable. Thoughts? -- Dylan 620  (contribs, logs) 05:06, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * A userspace draft is a good idea, but MfD is the wrong venue. I recommend following the talk page discussion process suggested by WP:N3D. The recreated article may end up at AfD again, but if you nominate it to get outside input, the AfD may be speedy kept per clause 1, lacking a recommendation to delete.

 * Should I restore the non-redirected version so that I can move the article into my userspace? -- Dylan 620  (contribs, logs) 14:36, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * No need, just copy the contents of this page. --JD554 (talk) 14:42, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * ✅. -- Dylan 620  (contribs, logs) 15:06, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Why??
Why should this article be deleted?? I don't understand it. It's not a worldwide single, but there are a lot of pages about non-worldwide singles. So if that's not, what is the reason? White Shadows has its own page and its single release was less important, and hit less countries--Quaveren (talk) 19:23, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Notability was never established as far as I can make out. Read WP:NSONGS for further info. --JD554 (talk) 14:20, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Protected edit request on 19 November 2014
I would like to add information about the Coldplay song "What If." It was featured on wikipedia a while ago and I want to add it again.

 * Padlock-dash2.svg Not done: requests for decreases to the page protection level should be directed to the protecting admin or to Requests for page protection if the protecting admin is not active or has declined the request. But you're probably best using WP:AFC, and ensuring that WP:NSONGS is satisfied. -- Red rose64 (talk) 00:39, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

It actually should be what it is like Lovers in Japan is single and What If is also a single.
