Biohazard: Symphony Op. 91: Crime and Punishment

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This soundtrack article neither establishes its notability nor has a corresponding artist article. Recommendation: Speedy delete per A9. Fleet Command (talk) 05:18, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Clarification: Administrator Dlohcierekim has already rejected speedy deletion per A9 on the pretext of automatic inheritance of notability from Resident Evil. However, contrary to this assertion, WP:MUSIC does not mention that notability may be inherited from anything other than a composer or musician. Fleet Command (talk) 06:04, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep or Merge. I would argue that either Resident Evil or CAPCOM would be considered the artist here as far as WP:MUSIC is concerned - both of which scream notability - but FleetCommand makes a good point.  Perhaps that policy should be reviewed to specifically mention situations like this one?  As per notability - I think that because the music is heavily featured in reviews of these particular games, it lends some extra weight to an officially released soundtrack.  I would not be opposed to this information simply being merged into the article about the game specifically.   Addionne (talk) 19:00, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * If that is so, Addionne, you have seven days to assert notability by providing citations. However, as for considering Resident Evil or CAPCOM as an artist, there is a void of policy support and much doubt of validity on my part. For the time being, the policy says that Resident Evil and CAPCOM may both be notable topics, but notability is not inherited. Fleet Command (talk) 20:19, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment All six other Resident Evil soundtrack AfDs that I nominated are now closed with a Merge consensus. Here is a list of them: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Biohazard: The Umbrella Chronicles Original SoundtrackArticles for deletion/Biohazard 2 Complete TrackArticles for deletion/Biohazard 2 Original SoundtrackArticles for deletion/Biohazard 3 Original SoundtrackWikipedia:Articles for deletion/Biohazard Code: Veronica Complete Original SoundtrackArticles for deletion/Biohazard Sound Chronicle</li></ol> Fleet Command (talk) 20:25, 21 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Wouldn't it make sense to merge all the mentioned articles into Music of Biohazard for instance? –MuZemike 00:33, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Great idea. But we need more consensus for those soundtrack articles which aren't nominated for deletion at all, don't you think? There are four of them: <ol><li>Biohazard Original Soundtrack Remix</li><li>Biohazard 5 Original Soundtrack</li><li>Biohazard Outbreak Original Soundtrack</li></ol>  But as for the pressing concern of the moment: Should this article be merged or deleted? Fleet Command (talk) 07:09, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
 * More reasons to have a discography article: I have discovered that there is already a Discography of the Resident Evil film series article whose link was not on the navigation template. I am beginning to think that we need more parity and consistency here than consensus. Fleet Command (talk) 07:48, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
 * IMO these should all be Merged to their parent articles as collapsible track lists. --Teancum (talk) 15:04, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to Resident Evil as a collapsible track list, since it's the soundtrack for the Dual Shock Edition. --Teancum (talk) 15:01, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Dual Shock? Didn't you mean Resident Evil (video game)? Fleet Command (talk) 13:52, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
 * From the article: "The soundtrack covers music from Resident Evil: Director's Cut Dual Shock Version." But yes, I meant the video game. --Teancum (talk) 17:10, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
