I Don't Want You to Go (Lani Hall song)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

No non-trivial coverage found. Only sources are primary or fansites, most of which I removed. The fact that multiple artists recorded it does not translate into notability if no reliable source coverage can be found; see WP:NSONGS. Searches found only Allmusic listings for the albums on which it appeared. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 00:22, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep, as it is has been "independently released as a recording by several notable artists." It only needs the relevant sources, which are found on discogs.com as well as Allmusic. Am86 (talk) 00:45, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Since when is "may be notable" read as "automatically, inherently notable"? Do you really think this'll grow beyond a stub? Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 00:57, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * In the WP:NSONGS guidelines, songs that have been "independently released as a recording by several notable artists" are "probably notable" and in this case the song is certainly notable. I will be adding additional, third-party sources. Am86 (talk) 02:33, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

 * The only "reliable sources" added by the author are Allmusic listings to albums where the song was covered. That does not fall under non-trivial coverage. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 01:20, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment: I've tried to look for sources and have had trouble finding them. Co-writer Allee Willis has written some biggies.  NP:Songs exists for a reason, though, I welcome thoughts on where to look for additional sourcing.--Milowent • talkblp-r  21:30, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
