Unable to establish this as Wikipedia-notable outside of an Allmusic review. Lachlan Foley (talk) 05:31, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep AllMusic should meet WP:GNG. At worst, redirect to Swans discography.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 12:36, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * How should AllMusic meet WP:GNG? Multiple sources are required. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:07, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Where does it say that all articles need multiple sources?  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 19:29, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * WP:GNG says a topic passes if that "topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" - "sources" means more than 1 source. WP:NALBUM says "All articles on albums, singles or other recordings must meet the basic criteria at the notability guidelines, with significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Did you read the notability policies? --Colapeninsula (talk) 17:07, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
 * We don't have notability policies, we have notability guidelines. There's a big difference. I would recommend that you avoid insults directed at other editors, even if you do subsequently revert them. --Michig (talk) 17:27, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Of course I've read the policies. I assume you're now going to take the tens of thousands of single sourced articles to Afd, on the back of your conclusion?  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 17:35, 4 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep and expand or Merge to Swans discography. I see no benefit from deleting it. --Michig (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Question Why delete instead of redirect? This user has created about a dozen of these album deletion requests and has yet to explain why they should be deleted and not simply redirected. Note that if they are redirected, the categories should remain and r from album should be added. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:45, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Has secondary sources, live performance albums are still notable.--Soul Crusher (talk) 20:29, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
