 * Delete - gives every appearance of being written based on the sleeve notes of the disc. The release is a re-release of the Swans previous albums and the article is basically a track listing, which is insufficient justification for an article (based on consensus at WP:NMUSIC). I've found one archived mention of the release in Classic Rock magazine but this is short and says little about the compilation album. Sionk (talk) 11:50, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Swans discography as a possible search term.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 12:16, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge to Swans discography. A separate article for a combined reissue is excessive, but a note at the discography re. the tracks included would be beneficial. --Michig (talk) 19:26, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

My reason for creating this page is because of the contentious tracklist. The title of this album suggests it is just the four releases put together. However, what people actually get is the "Cop" album, the "Young God" EP and then a strange mish-mash of "Greed" and "Holy Money" with ommisions, additions and a totally different playing order.
 * Find a reliable news source that says it's contentious and maybe that would change things. Otherwise that seems to be purely your own analysis, which is 'original research'. Sionk (talk) 13:04, 2 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Question Why delete instead of redirect? This user has created about a dozen of these album deletion requests and has yet to explain why they should be deleted and not simply redirected. Note that if they are redirected, the categories should remain and r from album should be added. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:45, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Has secondary sources. Compilation albums are still notable, especially when collecting multiple albums.--Soul Crusher (talk) 20:37, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
