 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

WP:CRYSTALBALL - Speedy delete was removed with the following edit summary: "the album is set to be released May 5, and can be found on CDUniverse.com and Amazon.com-if you have a fetish for deletions, let's get consensus and take it fo AfD!" Untick (talk) 02:22, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep, eyh, it appears likely to be released, and the artist is clearly notable. In a sense this is crystalballery, but is it really worth deleting now only to restore it in a few weeks time?  Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:30, 4 April 2009 (UTC).
 * Comment WP:CRYSTAL does allow for future album releases provided they meet the same criteria as albums that have already been released, ie it meets notability guidelines and verifiable sources are provided. If that can be sorted, its keep. If not, wait and see what happens when it comes out. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 04:45, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete until and unless it charts. It could flop, and there's no sense going through this again in six months. -- BlueSquadron Raven  22:20, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: notability of album yet to be established. JamesBurns (talk) 06:15, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. The article can always be re-created if the album becomes notable later.Inmysolitude (talk) 08:34, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. So being the debut album of one-half of a platinum-selling, Oscar-winning hip-hop duo doesn't count as notable?  Then what does? Also, I don't believe in "notability restrictions".  I believe Wikipedia is not paper, so that discussion is irrelevant. Tom Danson (talk) 01:28, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: notability is not inherited. JamesBurns (talk) 05:13, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Read the last part of my above comment again. There's a reason Wikipedia is not paper is first on the WP:NOT lists. Tom Danson (talk) 19:39, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep I think we're close enough to release to fall under the WP:NALBUMS caveat. DJ Paul is notable in his own right, so I think we can suffer this article for another month. If there's no consensus to keep, per WP:NALBUMS the contents should be merged the artist's article. Xymmax So let it be written   So let it be done  21:48, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
