Lips Are Movin (music video)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Completely unnecessary CFORK from the original article "Lips Are Movin". The whole content is easily merge able to the parent article and this should be deleted. There are tons of more important music videos which would deserve a separate article but not this. Lets not make this a hagiography of Meghan Trainor. — Indian: BIO  [ ChitChat  ] 10:02, 22 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Merge User:Winkelvi claims that the music video makes the song article WP:UNDUE when it does not and the music video is very relevant to the song article itself. The article can simply be expanded with more info on the song to balance the supposed "undue weight". The user has also done the same at All About That Bass (music video) which I have redirected and requested consensus at Talk:All About That Bass. - Lips are movin 11:30, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Lips, I tweaked your indentation and your "support" to the traditional keep. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 15:40, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Judging by the text of their comment, I would say that Lips Are Movin's vote is actually a "Merge" vote. Steel1943  (talk) 15:48, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Hmm--that's not how I read it. User:Lips Are Movin, please check my reading skills and tell us, "merge" or "keep". Drmies (talk) 15:58, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Oops, I meant "merge", thanks for pointing out. - Lips are movin 16:08, 25 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. This is an unnecessary content fork from the song's article. Unlike Michael Jackson's Thriller, the video isn't notable enough for its own article. -- Calidum  13:04, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge can't this be merged into Lips Are Movin? Some of the information is useful and well sourced, but I don't see the point of having a completely different article for it. LADY LOTUS • TALK 13:36, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge without a doubt. Main song article isn't very big to begin with. No need for the split.  G loss  13:44, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Merge - very few, if any, music videos are notable separately from the song they represent. This isn't one. Ivanvector (talk) 16:40, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. No reason to lose this information, so might as well merge it into the song page. Steel1943  (talk) 16:43, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge per above - I've never seen articles on both the same video and song ... Anyway Merge seems better imho. – Davey 2010 Talk 19:54, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. The parent article can still accommodate the expansion. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 04:29, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Lips Are Movin - If you see my edit summary during page creation, it was "Temporary creation to see what happens". And if consensus leans toward merging, I am going to support the merge. MaRAno  FAN 11:43, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete--I don't see anything to merge since the four paragraphs in the main article are already hefty enough (that is, overkill). Drmies (talk) 15:40, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete per Drmies. –Chase (talk / contribs) 19:18, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not beneficial to reader experience to have a separate article on the song's music video.  The music video is not separately notable, content should be in article on the song to best serve the public.--Milowent • hasspoken  04:29, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Lips Are Movin while not enough for a separate article, and I'm not sure how much should be merged, this is definitely a plausible search term. Snuggums (talk / edits) 18:14, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
