AOL Sessions (Lady Gaga EP)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Sources are Last.fm, a blog and a primary source. No other good sources found, as this appears to be a digital-only release. Albums by notable artists aren't inherently notable. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 16:26, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Albums and songs-related deletion discussions.  -- TexasAndroid (talk) 23:52, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lack of coverage from independent reliable sources. Failed to chart, does not meet the inclusion criteria. —  Σ xplicit  02:09, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - Per the inclusion criteria: "In general, if the musician or ensemble that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia." But I am not sure how that applies to EPs. Rlendog (talk) 18:17, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * May doesn't mean the same as will. Plenty of EPs by notable artists get deleted for lack of individual notability. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 00:32, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete:Fails notability. I primarily edit the Lady Gaga articles and can say convincingly that this one should be deleted for failing WP:NOTABILITY. --Legolas  ( talk 2 me ) 09:32, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: Does not actually exist. Complete fancruft and no reliable sources backing the article up, therefore it lacks notability! The cover is from another Lady Gaga remixes release edited by a fan replacing text with "The AOL Sessions" • вяαdcяo  chat  09:48, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep: I wish people would stop saying it doesn't exist - a quick search on Google will show you quite clearly it does. Regardless, the sources are verified and reliable and the EP is notable, in my opinion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tikkuy (talk • contribs) 09:47, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: Existence ≠ Notability. Without proper sources, this would not meet inclusion guidelines, even though Lady Gaga is a very popular artist. Sebwite (talk) 16:37, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

*Keep artist is notable and existence is verified; I don't see the problem here. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:50, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Follow-up If this cover is a manipulation - and it may well be - and if there is no information on a release other than on AOL's site, then it should be deleted. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:03, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
