List of songs recorded by Drake Bell
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

List of mostly non-notable songs, where the recordings (albums) all have articles. No need for this stand-alone article, esp. since as a topic ("Songs recorded by this singer-songwriter") there appears to be no notability whatsoever. So, it really fails NLIST, in spirit if not in letter, and it does not pass the GNG. All About That Bass (A word?? / Stalking not allowed...) 06:57, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * NOTE - I am no longer supporting this candidate for deletion, but I cannot withdraw this deletion because of Chase's and SNUGGUMS' redirect/delete votes. All About That Bass (A word?? / Stalking not allowed...) 07:14, 5 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Note - This appears to be a bad faith nomination. The nominator's article is up for deletion at Articles for deletion/List of songs recorded by Meghan Trainor, so he seems to be playing a "If I can't have mine, you can't have yours" game here.  only (talk) 09:48, 23 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Drake Bell discography for now. Even though this AFD might have been made going against WP:POINT, this article is unreferenced and most don't have articles. Snuggums (<b style="color:#454545">talk</b> / <b style="color:#454545">edits</b>) 12:28, 23 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete, merge, or redirect... but definitely don't keep it. Agreed with SNUGGUMS that despite the bad faith nomination there's no need for this article. –Chase (talk / contribs) 12:33, 23 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Bad faith nomination, as noted above by Only; disruptive in nature, and pointy, apparently one of several, and from an editor who never seems to learn. How much longer will the community allow this editor to exhaust our patience?  -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">WV ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">✉ ✓  13:56, 23 April 2015 (UTC)

<div class="xfd_relist" style="border-top: 1px solid #AAA; border-bottom: 1px solid #AAA; padding: 0px 25px;"> Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Keep per WP:LISTN, not NLIST, which is not applicable. It is a list of recordings by the artist, not a list of recordings of a specific artist released by a record label i.e. discography, It serves a totally different function. Whether there should be a "minimum size" for these lists may need to be debated and included in WP:NSONG, but until then, the reasons for delete noted above are not applicable. I shall copy myself into the two other similar nominations. --Richhoncho (talk) 19:53, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Redirect per Snuggums - Despite the perhaps pointy nomination - 2 out of 55 songs listed are notable and IMHO If you remove the non notables you're left with 2 songs which would be pointless, Seems better redirected IMHO. – Davey 2010 Talk 13:48, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep per LISTN and per the fact we already have articles named "Songs recorded by X" which until today I wasn't aware of, Makes sense to Keep IMHO. – Davey 2010 Talk 13:53, 1 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep per WP:LISTN, and the fact a lot more songs are linkable now, as he did many covers for Ready, Steady, Go! granted it is not his versions, but still. and I will get to adding sources when I can. His articles aren't exactly the most popular, and I've been focusing on his main, film, TV, songs, and albums. Just missed this one. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 02:06, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Drake Bell discography, the clearly superior of the two articles. The list article would have to be trimmed by about two-thirds anyway to remove the songs not independently notable.<b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:11pt; color:#BFA3A3"> Pax</b> 05:14, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
