Chickenshit Conformist

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Contested PROD. PROD rationale was "Fails WP:NSONGS. Was never released as a single, no independent notability, no evidence of significant secondary source coverage. Nothing here but unsourced statements, no hope of ever being more than a stub.". PROD tag was removed by an IP with no reason stated. IllaZilla (talk) 14:26, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge to its parent album Bedtime for Democracy, possibly without the "in popular culture" section, which would seem to be deprecated. Not much discussion of this song in reliable sources, and still less outside of reviews of the album. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:34, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge or redirect. Good song by a great band, but ain't no sourcing of which I'm aware... Carrite (talk) 02:25, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: Several other related articles (all non-notable Dead Kennedys songs) were also PRODed and deleted for the same reasons [ Pull My Strings, Moon Over Marin, Jock-O-Rama (Invasion of the Beef Patrol), A Growing Boy Needs His Lunch, and Buzzbomb (song) ] . I don't see anything different about this one. One generally expects to find 1 or 2 sentences on any given song within the context of album reviews, but that's all I can find for this one. Nothing that would make it stand alone. --IllaZilla (talk) 03:43, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Merge - There's a mention in Do politics and rock remain a viable mix? Montreal Gazette October 6, 2001 ("Rock'n'roll will always have an enemy, whether for the DKs or Elvis. That enemy is complacency, and if a song called Chickenshit Conformist counters the kind of thinking that might seek to rehabilitate the "Reagan Revolution," all the better."). Another mention in Miami New Times February 7, 2002" "The final studio effort, 1986's Bedtime for Democracy, pushed for musical innovation with the disturbing "Chickenshit Conformist" and "DMSO." ". Unlikely to meet WP:GNG. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 10:12, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
