Love Is a Dog

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non notable album by Tinpan Orange. Doesn't cite any sources. Article has one external link which is dead. The article's content hasn't even been changed since 2016. Fails WP:NALBUM, WP:GNG. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSA talk   12:34, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Tinpan Orange. It does get a bit of coverage, but I cannot see anything quickly that stands out.  Aoziwe (talk) 12:57, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment: there's an interview in the Sydney Morning Herald about the album's release ... admittedly primary material, but it does give some background information. There's a review of the record in the Melbourne newspaper The Age and apparently another one in the Australian edition of Rolling Stone, although as the magazine closed last year, there's no online archive to be able to check.

 * Keep. The links provided by Richard3120 are enough for WP:GNG. Doctorhawkes (talk) 23:22, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Why would you say "Keep"? That page is one sentence long. It miserably fails WP:Standalone, WP:NAlbums, and WP:GNG. That page is not worth keeping. Horizonlove (talk) 13:20, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
 * The test of GNG is not whether the article is good (it is not), but whether sufficient sources exist to confirm it's notability (they do, IMHO). if the decision is "keep", I'll make the effort to expand it after.Doctorhawkes (talk) 01:15, 8 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete. There is nothing to redirect to Tinpan Orange, it is just one sentence long. There is also no reason to "keep" it. It would be misleading to the keep the page, especially in its current state, by making readers think there is more information when they click on Love is a Dog link to read more about the album and find out the page is only a sentence long.

 * Redirects are cheap. It's easy to see someone search for the album on here via the search bar and redirect back to the artist. – The Grid  ( talk )  14:46, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Redirect to Tinpan Orange. Still a valid serach term even if there isn't enough to sustain a separate article. PC78 (talk) 14:44, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per Doctorhawkes. Additional sources: 1, 2, and 3. RS' review is here. Meets WP:NALBUM.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 12:32, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  Sandstein   13:54, 13 March 2019 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Redirect per PC78. Keeping simply isn't reasonable in the case of a 1-line article. Mosaicberry (talk) 15:05, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Sufficient coverage identified. Comments about the existing state of the article are missing the obvious, It can be improved. For the most part afds should judge the notability of the subject, not the existing article (exceptions do apply, promotion, copyvio BLP concerns, and others that do not apply here). duffbeerforme (talk) 00:54, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
