Bohemian Polka
It is only significant in the fact that it is a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody. It was never released as a single, and therefore probably isn't very famous, it should be deleted. MalwareSmarts 23:45, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, non-notable parody, full of fancruft and trivia. (Ugh, who would ever think of saying "you can hear (something contrived) if you play the song backwards" in an encyclopedia?!) Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 23:56, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Songs that don't make a significant ripple in the music world as a single are non-notable, unless the song creates its own source of notability through controversy or what have you. That doesn't apply here. Consequentially
 * Delete Not really notable, yet interesting to hear, being a cover of the tune and not a regular parody. Pharmboy 01:19, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to list of songs by Yankovic. Definitely hasn't been charted or placed in rotation or whatsoever. Fails WP:MUSIC. It hasn't been referenced in other popular culture either, so it's like a one off song that isn't notable by itself.--Kylohk 01:37, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect unless there is a meaningful peak chart position. Dbromage 05:54, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete; i don't see anything to salvage that's not covered by Alapalooza.  From the same album, "Talk Soup", "Livin' in the Fridge", and "Harvey the Wonder Hamster" also need assessing.  —Piet Delport 06:10, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to polka. The term "česká polka" ("Bohemian polka" in translation) is used among Czech musicians to distinguish it from other variants. Pavel Vozenilek 11:29, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. In that case it would need to redirect to a disambiguation page. Dbromage 00:43, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment If that is the case, then I would agree with Ddromage. Pharmboy 14:18, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect to Alapalooza or List of songs by "Weird Al" Yankovic unless notability can be better established. An article about "Bohemian polka" as a musical style should be at Bohemian polka (lower case 'p'). DHowell 05:24, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge with Alapalooza or List of songs by as Weird al, as Dhowell said. Crowstar  Vaseline-on-the-lens-Jitsu!fwends! 21:11, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge per above statements. — Andy W. (talk/contrb.) 17:58, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
