Orphaned Skies

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Poorly sourced article about a song with no credible claim to passing WP:NSONGS. The only claim of notability in evidence here is that the song exists -- and two of the three sources are the band's own self-published Bandcamp page and a Reddit thread, which are not notability-supporting sources. And while the third source (The AV Club) is more reliable in theory, it isn't actually substantively about this song either, but just glancingly namechecks its existence in a recap of a television episode -- which means it isn't deep enough coverage to magically get the song over WP:GNG all by itself as the only starter source in play. As always, every song is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists, but neither the substance of what there is to say about this one nor the sourcing on offer to support it add up to notability.

 * Redirect to Nathan for You or List of Nathan for You episodes. Not independently notable from the show or episode. No objection to outright deletion either. Sergecross73   msg me  11:49, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:GNG. I don't like redirecting to articles where the subject is not mentioned; it just annoys the reader. 2A02:C7F:4481:8300:90DC:E235:5074:54B0 (talk) 20:00, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Very sparse article with negligible references: the first reference is an advertisement, the second presents the lyrics in an unreadable format, and the third is not really about the song, but the show. It's also very odd to have a song presented as notable when the band isn't. ubiquity (talk) 20:06, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
