Non-notable compilation album. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:10, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - I added some information about it, it went double platinum in Malaysia and received awards. Let me know if this is substantial enough - Theornamentalist (talk) 18:45, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

 * 2nd Comment - So, the truth is I initially added this album simply because it contained a song (Bedroom Window) that I randomly stumbled upon a few years earlier and really liked and not because I thought it was notable; this is when I didn't understand the particulars of notability. I was aware of the accolades it received (seen in nicestupidplayground edits) but I failed to mention any of it here and the article remained that way until Koavf put it up in AfD. After some research, I believe that it is notable (and admittedly not with the best resources). I can't seem to find any "official" record of its success in sales, just several mentions of it, like Doomsdayer has said, in band biographies and news articles. I think that if there was a record of it, it would be here, but the english version of the site seems limited.
 * It is likely that I'm only supporting it because a. I like the song, and b. I did work in it, but I understand that that is not enough hah. On the other hand, if the consensus is tending towards deletion, I would ask for an extension until more may be found, if what is currently there is insufficient. - Theornamentalist (talk) 21:08, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
 * 3rd comment - I found one! check the billboard reference - Theornamentalist (talk) 22:14, 29 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Undecided - The info added by Theornamentalist is useful but the sources are pretty much all passing mentions or basic listings without commentary (such as the AllMusic page). The only proof we have so far of double-platinum status and awards in Malaysia is also in passing in articles that are otherwise about one of the bands in the compilation. I would consider Week Keep as a true vote here but more evidence of success in Malaysia is needed. -- D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 14:51, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - It's a well-filled out article at this point. Res Mar 04:14, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Insufficient reason by nominator and the article easily meets the general notability guidelines. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 17:43, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable enough in my opinion. Jenks24 (talk) 07:09, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
