LIFE is...

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

fails WP:MUSIC. Has no sources to prove notability. Beano (talk) 03:09, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Since it is the fifth studio album of Ken Hirai I would disagree and say it was notable. According to that article it came first in some chart. That should be easy enough to reference for someone who can dig up the original Japanese sources. - Mgm|(talk) 08:21, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I left a comment on WikiProject Japan hoping someone will come along to provide the needed references. - Mgm|(talk) 08:23, 24 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, article fails to establish notability as per WP:MUSIC#Albums.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 09:14, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * According to the article it hit first place on the charts (whatever chart that might be). I could agree to a sourcing issue, but how does the claim not meet the requirements? - Mgm|(talk) 12:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Reliable sources issue aside, just because it has charted doesn't automatically assure that an article can be created. WP:MUSIC states "album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article". This have got even less than that, hence my vote for delete. I'm not against recreation if more info comes to light mind you.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 00:51, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep - the #1 ranking can be verified here. Neier (talk) 22:12, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:20, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep per MacGyverMagic. Passes WP:MUSIC per Neier. D ARTH P ANDA talk 00:45, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - hoax, vanity, crystal ballery, non-notablilty, random-sounding article, resembles a fansite, miscellaneous list, Facebook/Myspace profile and amateurish language. Incorrect info, no infobox, bad grammar (how the hell can it be 'to be released' in the future if it says a remix was made a year later, and then four of the singles were released in 2002? No chronological order.) and randomly inserted info (who is this 'Ken' and what the heck is 'come back'?) No links and no research. - ÆÅM «(fætsøn!) 09:07, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * It's not crystal, &, but it isn't notable per WP:Music, and it definitely does come across like someone did a cut 'n paste from Google translator though.    Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 09:53, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * If you had bothered to click the link you'd know who Ken Hirai was and your comments completely ignore the given reference above. Bad grammar requires cleanup, not deletion. - Mgm|(talk) 10:31, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. Just because an article needs improvement does not qualify it for deletion. A notable miscellaneous list can still be fixed. D ARTH P ANDA duel 14:03, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
