If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Little Boy Soldiers is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Little Boy Soldiers until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Little Boy Soldiers
Firstly, read our notability criteria for songs and show some evidence that it meets them.

Secondly, cite the article to reliable sources. That does not mean online lyrics databases; it means content written by real journalists or music critics and published in real media, like newspaper articles, magazine articles or books. The sources also cannot represent Paul Weller talking about his own song in the first person; they must represent third parties writing or talking about it in the third person — and there must be several such sources, not just one or two.

A song does not get its own standalone article as a separate topic, but rather just gets mentioned in the track listing of its associated album, if you cannot do both of those things. Bearcat (talk) 16:17, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

Response from eggmanjames
That's fine, i'll find the source from Weller, just hold the deletion, give me at the most a week if you may.
 * A source "from Weller" won't help. Please note the comment I just added above — a source only supports notability if it represents third parties, such as critics or journalists, analyzing its significance independently of anything Weller says about his own work in the first person. The notability test hinges on independent analysis of its significance, not just on what its own creator says about his own work in his own words. Bearcat (talk) 16:23, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

(talk) that'll be impossible to do, as the song is widely not well known, is there another alternative?
