Papers (song)

There is little justification for this page considering that it is only a promotional single. it recieved very little independent coverage and so there is more than reasonable doubt over what makes this page notable. Under guidance for WP:notability (music) it is requested that this page is deleted and the content placed on the album's page Raymond v. Raymond Lil-unique1 (talk) 19:23, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

Redirect content then delete page Jayy008 (talk) 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. Checking Billboard, as referenced in the article, it made #31 and was 12 weeks in the charts, plus the article claims #1 RnB charts. --Richhoncho (talk) 16:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
 * The chart positions are not in dispute, it needs chart positions AND independent coverage, this has happened before for The Fame Monster, like every song charted, but you can't have a page for every single song off the album when all the info can be shown on the album page.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
 * Keep - #1 on the R&B chart, a major Billboard chart. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.99.6 (talk) 22:28, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Not sure why this is considered for deletion. This song has had some radio airplay and has reached #1 on an important chart, and stayed for a number of weeks, and could end up being his most successful single from his current album. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yunohuayam (talk • contribs) 08:38, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep a #1 hit on a major chart should have an article. Dew Kane (talk) 04:28, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep article about major hit record (#31 on Billboard Hot 100). High chart placement on the Hot 100 is sufficient to meet the notability standard as Billboard reports are repeated throughout the industry... and not just in North America. B.Wind (talk) 02:40, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
