List of songs about teenage fun
Kind of a nice idea, but "about teenage fun" is such a nebulous, subjective, elusive definition that this list will never be able to satisfy WP:V or WP:NPOV. I wouldn't mind a renaming if someone could come up with a way to satisfy those criteria. Dylan 02:35, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Whatcha gonna do when you get out of jail, I'm gonna Delete this article. Danny Lilithborne 02:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Maybe a subjective, unverifiable bit of teenage fun? Delete. --Hamiltonian 03:23, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * "Only the bad lists die young..." Delete. Irongargoyle 04:03, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and Rename I think "fun" is what makes the title subjective. I would suggest List of songs about teenagers. --Pinkkeith 04:08, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Subjective and also endless. The majority of pop-rock songs from the 1950s and 1960s concerned this. If it's switched to "List of songs about teenagers" you might be dealing with pretty much all youth music since World War II.--T. Anthony 06:24, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep but Rename The validity of these songs is very strong and therefore cannot be deemed as an untrue article but needs to change it's title due to the subjectiveness of it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by John 99 h (talk • contribs)
 * Delete as inherently POV and egregious listcruft. --MCB 06:57, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * delete as uselessly broad. precedent at Articles for deletion/List of songs about unrequited love . Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 07:29, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete list of X with unassociated unencyclopedic value Y. MLA 08:56, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - inevitably subjective and therefore meaningless. And who is the person who thinks Pretty Vacant is about "fun"? BTLizard 08:59, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete failing WP:V - if someone wants to source it, by all means keep. Nominator is wrong to suggest it can't pass WP:V and WP:NPOV - it just doesn't. WilyD 13:10, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, this is not verified, and the concept of "songs about teenage fun" is completely subjective. Beyond that T. Anthony has an excellent point; even if someone quantifies the criteria for what constitutes a "song about teenage fun", I suspect it would be a massively unmaintanable list.--Isotope23 13:47, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete; leaving apart subjectivity, a list of songs that are not about teenage fun would be easier to maintain than this one. - Smerdis of Tlön 14:18, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete--I like a good list, but this ain't one. -MrFizyx 15:09, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete and transwiki to http://www.last.fm/tag/teenage_fun or, er, something like that. --Dhartung | Talk 16:32, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
