Haseul (single)

Fails WP:NSONG. Migrate any significant information to the album article. Esprit15d • talk • contribs 14:58, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * All single albums by Loona (band) so far have had articles created for them, as all of them have have charted and made sales on the Gaon Album Chart. If the problem is references, I am more than happy to find trusted sources. Abdotorg (talk) 15:09, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * That would be great if you could include referenced info that shows the song meets WP:NSONG. I did some research myself, but could only find fansites, music stores, and the like.  But perhaps there are better sources in Korean.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 18:46, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * What about refs from the official Gaon Music Chart? They are already included in the group's main article as of current, which shows where the album charted and how many sales it made in the first month. Abdotorg (talk) 19:14, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * It needs to be in the song article, and it needs to be about the song.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 20:08, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, it needs to be about the song. No, it doesn't need to be in the article for the sake of the AFD. Technically, all you need to do is show the sourcing exists. (Looks like someone presented it below.) Sergecross73   msg me  14:55, 5 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment. "Migrate any significant information to the album article" is a merge proposal and would not allow the article to be deleted. This is therefore the wrong forum. --Michig (talk) 21:05, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep this nomination doesn't make sense. The article in question is an (albeit very short) album, which debuted on the Korean charts at #35 in Dec 2016 - so meets WP:NALBUMS #2. I'm not entirely sure how K-pop works but it seems like a mini-album/maxi single is used here rather than a typical Western pop single format. Fuebaey (talk) 22:28, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment - Haven't searched enough to do a full !vote, though I'm leaning keep with the Gaon chart, which is South Korea's national chart, so it is a significant placement. Wanted to point out though - if kept, it needs to be moved to its correct article title. The correct disambiguation term would be "song", not "single", though no disambiguation is necessary at all, considering "Haseul" currently goes unused. Sergecross73   msg me  14:55, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I will make sure to add refs from Gaon to the page asap, and I am considering moving the article (and others of it's type) into Haseul (single album) just to keep from confusion. Abdotorg (talk) 15:16, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see, I didn't realize that, while "Haseul" is the name of the single release, that there is no such song on the release named Haseul. That's...rather bizarre, in my experience. Regardless, it doesn't really matter what it is, if there's nothing at "Haseul", then the article should only be moved to "Haseul". The words in parentheses in Wikipedia article titles are only supposed to be used if you need to distinguish it from other subjects of the same name. If there isn't anything at that name, no parentheses should be used. Sergecross73   msg me  15:48, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
