List of songs describing saving oneself from oneself

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Per WP:NOTDIRECTORY, this page is merely a list of songs with a common line. Derild 49  21  ☼  13:01, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete We really don't need lists like this cluttering up WP. Catfish Jim and the soapdish (talk) 13:17, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete songs not notable, obviously just a word string search turned into an article. inclusion criteria if its just song lyrics: too narrow and are OR (who has written about this song lyric?). inclusion criteria if for the idea: way too vague and imprecise. Not any better than "list of songs about crying to oneself" or "loneliness". etc.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 14:56, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. If the phrase "save me from myself" were a notable aspect of a song, the list might have some merit, but I cannot see any evidence of that, nor how this article can be useful for anything except trivia. Sjakkalle (Check!)  15:39, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - On the face of it, a list no better and no worse than lots of OTHER STUFF that EXISTS. But here's really the issue: is this list going to matter to anyone? Is anyone ever going to find it? Nobody is going to search the phrase "List of songs describing saving oneself from oneself." So how does one get to this page? Answer: one doesn't. It's a low-value orphan article that's linked to nothing, nor can it really be linked to anything without a bunch of non-germane "See Also" links. No nutritional value and not encyclopedia-worthy, in the final analysis. Carrite (talk) 15:51, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - I have no idea what purpose this serves. - eo (talk) 19:04, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete this list that can't save itself from itself. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:24, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - I don't see this passing any notability category. It seems like trivia to me. Rlendog (talk) 02:05, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
