List of songs over ten minutes in length

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unmaintainable list, fails WP:NOT. The list of songs over 15 minutes in length was deleted in November 2006 (see Articles for deletion/List of songs over fifteen minutes in length (second nomination)), but this is even worse. Prolog 09:10, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. This list is overly arbitrary and impossible to maintain. There are an impossibly large number of songs over 10 minutes so this could never be anything approaching complete. Furthermore, in its current state, it has no references at all and so is entirely original research. Will (aka Wimt ) 09:19, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per precedent. As said, even worse than the other one. Punkmorten 11:38, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete next we will have "Songs over 1 minute long". Get rid of this article Dep. Garcia ( Talk   + |  Help Desk  |  Complaints  ) 11:55, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Actually, it's a list of RECORDINGS over 10 minutes. Agree with above comments that is arbitrary and unmaintainable. And what happens if I take a 9m 30s song and sing it slowly? Does it then qualify? Emeraude 13:20, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete As being a non-encyclopaedic article topic. If this is an article than we may as well have categories of every song / recording duration. Also agree with Emeraude and would add that in classical music there would be many movements of many recordings that could qualify for inclusion in such an article as to create a nonsense listing article.

 * Delete There are too many 10+ minute songs out there that will make this article into a sprawling list at best. Hydrogen Iodide 16:14, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
