Talk:Without You (Mariah Carey recording)

Does this NEED its own article?
It's the same song. How is Mariah Carey's version more "deserving" of its own article than say the Nilsson version? 197.87.135.139 (talk) 15:17, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Per WP:NCOVER, "Notable covers are eligible for standalone articles, provided that the article on the cover can be reasonably-detailed based on facts independent of the original." Nilsson's version has nothing to do with the merits of Carey's cover version for an article so that is a moot argument. Heartfox (talk) 16:05, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
 * But surely EVERY successful cover version should get its own article? Nilsson's version is not "a moot argument", as it is far more notable than Carey's. Elvis' Blue Suede Shors should be split off from the song article, The Beatles' Twist and Shout should be split off from the song article, Nilsson's Without You should be split off from the song article etc. etc. etc. I notice you advocate specifically for the Mariah Carey Without You. Will you be going song by song through wiki, splitting off every cover that was a hit single? Or is this particular? And, wax there ever a discussion over specifically Mariah Carey's Without You, with consensus reached? Or did you just take it upon yourself to do it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.87.135.139 (talk) 18:58, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
