Sanam Re (song)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Nothing specifically covering this song.All covg. in general film-sound-track review(s).Singular coverage lonely in promotional writings.The critical reception section writes reviews of the song from mostly WP:RS sections but WP:NSONGS says ... Coverage of a song in the context of an album review does not establish notability. If the only coverage of a song occurs in the context of reviews of the album on which it appears, that material should be contained in the album article and an independent article about the song should not be created...; which is what is happening here.Won a non-notable award.Redirect and/or Merge to film article sought. Ping as someone involved in the case. Winged Blades Godric 17:28, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep meets GNG. Artw (talk) 02:13, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment--How can't this be covered at the film article? Winged Blades Godric 03:48, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
 * It's AfD, not AfM - possibly you should withdraw your noms and make a merge argument through regular channels? Artw (talk) 04:51, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
 * um... "merge" is a totally valid !vote at AfD per WP:ATD. Plus, if  changes his mind on things doesn't that show flexibility?    Dr Strauss   talk   16:53, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment-I am amused that WGB Afded this article. The song is hugely popular with the Indian media I probably have heard it +i number of times  RADICAL  SODA(FORCE)  08:05, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
 * And I'm equally surprised by such a splendid argument!Hand-wavings don't matter! Winged Blades Godric 06:49, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't understand what it has got to do with popularity? We are talking about GNG I believe.-Umair Aj (talk) 21:01, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 06:51, 23 July 2017 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: While Artw is correct that this AfD should not have started because the nominator sought only to redirect or merge (which is not what AfD is for), once another editor has !voted delete, the AfD cannot be withdrawn or speedy kept per WP:SK anymore. So let's use this already ongoing discussion to debate whether this subject deserves a standalone article or should be covered in the film's article.

 * Redirect to Sanam_Re as the song is not exceptional enough to have its own article. It does not have any independent achievements in filmfare and other awards. There is no point in creating separate articles for each little song.--DreamLinker (talk) 16:26, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Seems to pass WP:NSONG. Has some evidence of good coverage . Additionally, the song won the most streamed song in India award at the Globe Indian Music Awards 2016 . Played on rotation on national radio channels like Radio Mirchi and chart topper on the recognized Mirchi Top 10/20 chart for multiple weeks, Mirchi Annual Chart #8 for the year 2016, Apple Music Annual Chart #2 for the year 2016,, made it to the BBC's Official Asian Music Chart for multiple weeks, and others.
