Rainbow in the Night

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article about a song and music video, not adequately referenced as passing our notability criteria for either songs or web content. The notability claim on offer here is that it exists, but just being able to verify that a thing exists is not automatic grounds for a Wikipedia article in and of itself -- and when it comes to the sourcing, one of the three footnotes is the YouTube copy of the video itself, and another is a dead link that waybacked as a very short blurb on the proprietary blog of a defunct Jewish online dating service, which means two of the three footnotes aren't reliable or notability-supporting sources at all. And while the third footnote is an actual (albeit short) article in a real newspaper, that's a start but not in and of itself enough. There's just nothing here that's "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to have a lot more than just one piece of reliable source coverage about it in real media.

 * Delete - Looks like an attempted promotion to drum up advertising revenues over at YouTube. In addition to the local Alabama newspaper article mentioned by the nominator, I also found this: . Both are informative but non-critical and possibly related to press releases. It's a worthy project but should be promoted elsewhere. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 16:16, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
