16 Most Requested Songs

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Contested prod. Another non-notable compilation that is also written like an advertisement. WP:NOTDIR applies. De728631 (talk) 15:34, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - actually WP:NOTDIR does not apply because if you look at that guideline it says nothing about track listings within album articles, which are necessary regardless of how informative the article is otherwise. With that being said, this appears to be a quickie compilation with no interest for the general media or for fans, so it has not received significant coverage in reliable sources.

 * Comment Well, in WP:NOTDIR it says "Wikipedia is not a directory of everything that exists or has existed.", so one could say that writing a single article for each and any released medium associated with an artist is not desirable as well. Just because it exists and is linked to a notable person it need not be on Wikipedia. Otherwise I of course agree with you that this particular disc is lacking relevant coverage in the first place.

 * Delete - checking for critical coverage via Google News doesn't turn up much.  It does appear that "16 most requested songs" is a compilation title for multiple artists.  Was this a series of compilations? -- Whpq (talk) 18:20, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
