Melisse

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

The label doesn't seem to be too notable, besides the fact that it is mentioned in the Édouard Ferlet article. But this article doesn't add much more than what is in that article, so I propose this article be redirected to Édouard Ferlet. Belasted (talk) 18:06, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

 * I have fixed the issue by inserting the proper afd2 template at Articles for deletion/Intelligence quotient. I also removed extra whitespace inserted by the nom of this AfD. KuyaBriBri Talk 20:30, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. I found the official English website of the label and it does have links to PDF files that appear to be clippings of coverage in third-party sources; unfortunately, most of those sources are in French and I have zero French knowledge. If someone with a better knowledge of French can prove these sources are or are not reliable I will reconsider my position. The article can be kept as a stub. (I thought I'd assess this nomination since the nom asked me for technical help) KuyaBriBri Talk 21:24, 3 March 2009 (UTC); edited KuyaBriBri Talk 21:27, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment - I looked at two of those PDFs on the website and all of the clippings in them are peripheral mentions of the label in the context of reviews of the artist's work. That's not the same as notability for the label. § FreeRangeFrog 07:26, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Based on the above comment I change my !vote to Redirect per nom. KuyaBriBri Talk 13:54, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails notability per WP:CORP. Searching pulls up no reliable, third-party, sources.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 12:33, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per CSD A7 and per WP:N  §hawn poo   16:51, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I added a couple of links to the article. They show that the label exists, but not that it is notable. Other Google hits are about the albums the label has issued, or the founder Édouard Ferlet who (correctly) has a Wikipedia entry, but not the label itself. Just another small label.

 * Comment. I re-emphasize my request that this be redirected to the Édouard Ferlet article, as the topic almost exclusively has to do with him. Belasted (talk) 21:23, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I support redirect. If the label achieves notability, the redirect can be turned into an article. Maybe the Édouard Ferlet article could be expanded to give a bit more on the label, based on sources. Aymatth2 (talk) 23:46, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Just made Melisse a section in the Édouard Ferlet article, which the redirect could point to. Aymatth2 (talk) 00:16, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * That's pretty much perfect, and I don't know why anyone would disagree. So let's get this thing redirected! Belasted (talk) 00:23, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I assume you have never got into a discussion about mergism with User:DGG? :~) Aymatth2 (talk) 00:42, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually I have a few times and I know what you mean. But shhhhhh... Really, I think we can delete and redirect this article with no controversy. Belasted (talk) 01:08, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
