In addition, NSINGLE states, "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."

 * There's a handful of single announcement pieces available but I don't see anything beyond that, and even those aren't worth much. Redirect to the artist page since it's at least mentioned on there in a couple places, including a maybe-notable award it won. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 17:07, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Costa Titch. The song does not appear to have the coverage necessary to support an independent page, but since a viable redirect target does exist, I think that is always preferrable over outright deletion. Aoba47 (talk) 20:52, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
