List of songs covered by Indian singers

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Indiscriminate list - unclear why the topic is notable. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ  17:42, 7 February 2018 (UTC)


 * How can you say that it is a indiscriminate list? Your point? Zafar24   Talk  10:38, 8 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep :This is notable topic in India thats why it is covered by reliable references. Covered version exist for every artist see this here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Lists_of_cover_songs Zafar24   Talk  18:00, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
 * - Indian people have covered songs, and so have people of every nationality, race, creed, etc. Creating a list for every potential combination of factors is indiscriminate. All the lists in that category are songs related to specific artists, not a trait or class of musicians. It is entirely different. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia  ᐐT₳LKᐬ  18:06, 7 February 2018 (UTC)


 * said that it is indiscriminate list. Please note that I cannot create coverd songs list for every Indian singer so thats why I wrote them in this list. For example List of songs covered by the Beach Boys exist in same way I created list for Indian singers which includes those singers who sung covered songs.

 * Delete. Sorry, but this just seems too trivial. Listing songs covered by a singer is in my view not going to be encyclopedic other than for the most notable of artists. Virtually every popular singer has covered other people's songs at some point. --Michig (talk) 20:45, 7 February 2018 (UTC)


 * It is encyclopedic as it is showing info about original and covered songs. And those are the notable artists which present in Lists. Zafar24   Talk  10:35, 8 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete Too indiscriminate for sure; anyone can cover a song if they want to (if people listen/like it though is another question). Unless this is a sourced list where the cover does better than the original, there's no point to this article.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 01:54, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

 * I don't think it is indiscriminate list because it is just show info about covered song and previous song. 2.They are not anyone, they are Notable Indian singers. Zafar24   Talk  10:43, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * But why are they notable? You have to establish why they're notable. As much as we think Dua Lipa is world-renowned for instance, in a few places there are plenty of people who are 'Dua who?'. And French people don't follow German signers closely, the same as Russians don't really follow much K-Pop outside a few known names.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 18:33, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete This is just trivia and has no encyclopedic value. --  Hagennos  ❯❯❯  Talk  05:37, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete covering songs in one way or another is just to common to be listable. On a similar note, too many song articles are categorized by all the people who ever made a cover of them, which is some cases is just plain ludicrous.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:58, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per majority of others. WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE. Ajf773 (talk) 03:54, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete The artists/singers seem notable. The songs seem notable.  It's possible that each cover might be worth mentioning on either the singer or song page.  There is, however, no evidence that this list is notable. ~  Amory  (u • t • c) 18:27, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
