List of songs with state names in the title

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Another instance of a ridiculous self-aggrandizing, purposeless WP:TRIVIA list. There is no greater relationship between these songs; they are no relevant in terms of genre, theme, or any other important categorization. Bulldog123 (talk) 20:20, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Utter trivia. No common thread among these songs save for the fact that they mention states. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 20:24, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak Delete, per WP:NOT. I wouldn't object to a category, though I've been pounded on for that opinion recently :-) (In truth, I love lists like this but I agree it is trivia, not worthy of an encyclopedic article.) Frank  |  talk  21:09, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * You should be pounded on for that opinion. :P  Categories and lists are meant to be different ways of doing the same thing.  Each has its strengths and weaknesses.  If this is good enough for a category that can be read by machines, it's good enough for a list to be read by people.  Celarnor Talk to me  01:10, 10 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. Trivia. JohnCD (talk) 21:11, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete May have been floated as a trial balloon to see how we would react. Pop. Mandsford (talk) 22:05, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Pretty pointless cross-categorization that results in sheer trivia.  Celarnor Talk to me  01:10, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete I don't think a list or category would be very useful- as some have said above, it basically comes down to trivia. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 06:54, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, trivia and listcruft. KleenupKrew (talk) 10:21, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Since it doesn't even include Uncle Bonsai's "Iowa Apology Song", I have no use for it, and I don't feel like adding it myself. No, seriously--another basic listcruft. Eauhomme (talk) 17:07, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
