List of songs whose title includes geographical names

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Strong delete - Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information and Wikipedia is not a directory of loosely associated topics. The songs on this massive list have absolutely nothing in common with each other beyond the coincidence of having a "geographical name" of some sort in their titles. They do not share subject matter or theme in common. It indiscriminately captures songs titled with any geographical feature from a street to a continent, across multiple languages. Lists for songs titled after landmarks and fictional places have been deleted and this list is an order of magnitude worse. Otto4711 13:19, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Strong Delete (WP:NOT), also if lists like this were allowed to be made on Wikipedia, Wikipedia would be filled with millions of articles like this, which have no real importance. — TC Jackrm 16:06, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. This list is impossibly huge and will only get bigger if not nuked -- it's definitely indiscriminate, and sorely lacking in reliable sources (if it could even be sourced). Ten Pound Hammer  • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 16:48, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
