Questions about its notability by other users, one user tried to redirect, but hadn't waited for discussion to close Purplebackpack89 (talk) 15:13, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Adding sister minor singles off the same album to the nom. They should be handled as a group for consistency. --Cyber cobra (talk) 18:27, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep: I started this RFD because the redirect process wasn't handled probably, not because I think the song's not notable.  I believe that there is precedent that notable artist + single + music video = notable. Purplebackpack89 (talk) 15:17, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Redirect There is no claim of notability in the article for the song. I nominated for merge with the album, another editor merged, it has now been unmerged and re-merged a couple of times. It is good it has been brought here for discussion. There is no WP guidance that makes this song notable because there is a video. --Richhoncho (talk) 15:30, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
 * By the same rationale, Beautiful, Dirty, Rich, a good article, would get booted; it wasn't even released as a single, as Ringtone was Purplebackpack89 (talk) 15:33, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * And as an experienced editor you should know that it is WP guidance that matters, not what happens in other articles. Have you notified other interested parties? --Richhoncho (talk) 15:37, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
 * If by interested parties you mean the people involved in the article discussion plus the articles creator, I believe I have Purplebackpack89 (talk) 16:15, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes you have, sorry for suggesting that you might not have done. --Richhoncho (talk) 16:19, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge to Internet Leaks. Song is barely notable to justify a full article. --M ASEM (t) 16:00, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep Singles from established artists seem like they should be notable. Also helps make the Weird Al singles succession in Infobox single continuous as opposed to jumping erratically. But I am the article creator and there aren't a lot of sources covering the single on its own in great depth (but then again it is only 1 song), and I readily cop to this argument being more or less "inherited" notability, hence my vote is Weak. --Cyber cobra (talk) 18:19, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge to Internet Leaks. Doesn't even begin to meet the guidelines established on Notability. CNR (song), Ringtone (song), and Skipper Dan all should redirect to the Internet Leaks page. The articles are too brief and lack any citations or anything to establish notability. Funny how I post a discussion about whether or not to merge, and no one responds until I go through with the merge. Spman (talk) 04:26, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
