Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Losing Streak (song)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result of the nomination was delete all articles listed below at time of closing. San Dimas High School Football Rules cannot be deleted under this AfD, as the tag on its article was removed very early on during this discussion and not replaced, but there is no consensus on that song here anyway, so it's a moot point. --Sam Blanning(talk) 10:53, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Losing Streak (song)
Song off an early, independent, nn album that didn't chart, nor did any of its singles. Burgwerworldz 00:04, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are part of an album by The Ataris entitled, Blue Skies, Broken Hearts...Next 12 Exits. This album was released by an independent label several years before the band achieved mainstream popularity. Each song on the album now has its own article, even though this album did not reach any billboard chart, and none of the singles reached any sort of chart as well. This band is not influential to have merit to have each song from a non-charting indie album have their own articles. Also look at music examples in Articles for deletion/Precedents Here are the additional songs and articles that I also propose for deletion:


 * 1*15*96
 * Your Boyfriend Sucks
 * I Won't Spend Another Night Alone
 * Broken Promise Ring
 * Angry Nerd Rock
 * The Last Song I Will Ever Write About A Girl
 * Choices
 * Better Way
 * My Hotel Year (acoustic)
 * Life Makes No Sense
 * Answer
 * In Spite Of The World

 * Delete all, except for San Dimas High School Football Rules Is the band notable? Absolutely. But this album is not especially notable, and every song on the album certainly isn't. I would argue keeping "SDHSFR" as it is the first single by a very well-known band, and thus could merit inclusion in WP on its own. That song's article needs clean up, but I think it's sufficiently significant. -- Kicking222 01:32, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep San Dimas High School Football Rules, Delete all, as they don't really merit encyclopedia articles. --Core des at talk. o.o;; 02:24, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Same as Cordesat and Kicking 222 per both AdamBiswanger1 03:40, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep "SDHSFR," delete the rest per above. Delete all under consideration. Pretty good album, but not every song deserves a page. After some thought, I also recommend a merge of "SDHSFR" into the main band page per Scientizzle's reasons, although personally I think a redirect is valid given the song's notability in the genre.

 * Keep San Dimas High School Football Rules and delete the rest (or merge if applicable) as per Kicking222 and everyone else. &mdash; ዮም   (Yom)  |  contribs  •  Talk  •  E  06:08, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment To make things easier, I have decided to remove San Dimas High School Football Rules from consideration for deletion. --Burgwerworldz 14:40, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge the songs now under consideration. I would actually be inclined to suggest merging SDHSFR somewhere as well; there doesn't seem to be very much to say about it other than that it was their first single, which means it might be better covered as part of some wider context, which would be more useful to those who are trying to find out about the history of the band.  But consensus seems to disagree on that point.  &mdash; Haeleth Talk 16:35, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep the band delete the rest Crazynast 20:31, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete them all, SDHSFR would barely be a footnote on the band's main page, no need to give it an article...not even a redirect. -- Scientizzle 22:34, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
