This is actually a renomination because for some reason nobody bothered to chip-in last time.

A search on Google for (him "live in hel") returned 156 results, and again (as I recently nominated Uncover… which had the same problems) most were torrent websites, fansites or YouTube videos. Those that were not were PR and did little to justify why the EP is so notable. (Here's an example.) Links used in citations appear to be dead, fansites or both. Again, it is my belief that a release like this belongs on Discogs, not here.  Lazy Bastard  Guy  00:51, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Isn't this really more of a merge/ redirect candidate since there is an article on the parent subject (the band)? Candleabracadabra (talk) 04:28, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't believe so. I don't understand why insert promo CDs bear any mention if they have had next to no notable impact whatsoever. This was a covermount CD that came with a magazine, and exactly nothing else that I could substantiate. Wikipedia may have discographies that cover some obscure stuff, but not obscure. Like I said, this would be better on Discogs, where anything and everything is included regardless of its impact or notability. We can't keep track of every release like this, so I don't think we should try. Better to focus on the more major stuff and completely ignore things like these.

 * Delete I am not familiar with the practices in popular music, but anywhere else we wouldn't even consider keeping an article on a re-publication of a small amount of previously released material even for an exceptionally famous person. (in fact, I cannot remember even the most fervent supporter of an author here ever trying to write one.) This level of depth may conceivably be appropriate for content in the discography of a famous artist, but certainly not for an article.   DGG ( talk ) 20:25, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
