Love Shines (2019 song)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

See WP:NSONG. Song has not appeared on any charts, written and performed by musicians that are not notable. 162 etc. (talk) 15:22, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Albums and songs and Philippines. Shellwood (talk) 16:43, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable song. Would be willing to revisit if there are more domestic language RS, I can't find any. Oaktree b (talk) 17:22, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Don't expect. Almost all of the WP:RS about topics in the Philippines on the internet are in English. Howard the Duck (talk) 20:25, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep It is a notable song, check the sources of Star ng Pasko, Ikaw ang Liwanag at Ligaya, Andito Tayo Para sa Isa't Isa, etc. The sources mentioned there that mentioned by the nominator is not present and they were just leaved as is. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 21:50, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * TBH, those songs (esp. the last two) may end up being deleted also. 162 etc. (talk) 16:42, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:NSONGS. Notability aside, a standalone article is appropriate only when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album. — hueman1 ( talk •  contributions ) 23:37, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable holiday image campaign song. We've usually deleted image campaigns and songs for Western networks so that consensus must carry through here. The other three 'it's notable!' articles need to go too and I'd support their deletion; to put it kindly, the sources for these are all PR (or sourced to ABS-CBN itself) which only exist to needle on the pointlessness that is Filipino television network rivalries.

 * The last source on the article that mentions the trend of the song, was that not enough? The source was in Tagalog. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 05:49, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * We don't discriminate WP:RS by language, but WP:NSONGS is paramount here; even if we include that in the article, it still is a stub and is unlikely to grow. WP:GNG is relevant and it doesn't even pass that. Howard the Duck (talk) 13:33, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment It's a press release disguised as an article which cherry-picks positive reviews about the song from social media. This line especially...
 * "“You can feel GMA’s sincerity in reaching out to the needy. It is not only for publicity or ratings, they truly wanted to make a difference. And their artists reflect the values they hold dearly. Kapuso forever!”"


 * They could donate money, but like the folks involved with "Do They Know It's Christmas?" who forget the people they sing about have access to calendars and know the concept of a year, they instead choose to just release a vague feel-good holiday song like every other network in the Christian world does during the holidays. There's no critical commentary about the song in the article. "Kapuso forever" is a reference to their slogan, again a part of the 'network rivalries' most normal people don't care about. This isn't a proper source in the least. And yes, I'm sure money from selling the track digitally/streaming it went to proper charities, but that's a small pool of people who actually will.

 * Delete: Fails WP:NSONGS. All sources say relatively the same thing about the song, and it's not much. Also, it looks like some information in Concept was copied and pasted. ResPM  (T&#x1F508;&#x1F3B5;C) 12:07, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per reasoning at Articles for deletion/Andito Tayo Para sa Isa't Isa: This song is a "full-length production but appears to have been created for purely promotional or charity purposes", and such networks' christmas songs are released yearly. Both of these reasons fail WP:NSONG. Chompy Ace 21:07, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per above, fails WP:NSONG. CruzRamiss2002 (talk) 14:35, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
