Please stop
Creating tracklist-only album articles. That's not what Wikipedia is for. Please read WP:Your first article and WP:NALBUMS: "All articles on albums, singles or songs must meet the basic criteria at the notability guidelines, with significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

"In general, if the musician or ensemble is notable, and if the album in question has been mentioned in multiple reliable sources, then their officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia... Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article, space permitting. (my emphasis)" The general criterion for anything to have a Wikipedia article is called notability and depends on showing references to "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". See WP:42 for what that means. It applies to albums as much as to any other subject.

I am sure you can find plenty of existing articles that don't meet the standard, but see WP:WAX - that's not a reason for allowing more. If you are interested in writing about music, see WP:WikiProject Albums where you can find advice on how to do it properly. JohnCD (talk) 15:19, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Fly Away (Blackfoot album)


The article Fly Away (Blackfoot album) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No references, no context, no indication that this meets WP:NALBUMS.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
