Hardware Store (song)
Not notable, wasn't a single, no video. Crumbsucker 23:01, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, the same reason "Why Does This Always Happen To Me?" was just deleted. Joltman 22:26, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. Maybe worth a token mention on the "Weird Al" Yankovic page. Wikipedia is not a record store. 205.157.110.11 06:24, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. No notability stated, implied, or attempted.  I'm sure it's a funny song, but it only gets 635 distinct Ghits (for "hardware store"+"weird al"), mostly MP3 download sites; no multiple non-trivial third-party articles, no awards, no evidence of charting.  It therefore fails WP:MUSIC.  Tychocat 09:53, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:V - no need for other arguments. WilyD 14:09, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Have you ever listened to the song????  Footballplayr69 13:53, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Weird Al and everything that he does has cult status for quite a few people Encyclopaedia Editing Dude 16:54, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, but needs to be rewritten substantially. No, listing all the items in the vocal interlude does not work, and I think the YTMND reference should stay with YTMND's own wiki. -K2JMan 01:27, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - I don't think Weird Al's cult status rises to the level of an article on one of his minor songs. - David Oberst 05:17, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - some songs suck poop; but we need more articles on Weird Al songs. --Nintendude message 00:49, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
