Shinkai no Kodoku
A non-notable song that appears in a japanese cartoon series is hardly deserving of its own individual article. Delete Timon 03:35, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

 * He was probably searching in Japanese, which finds 22700 for me. In any case, counting google hits isn't research. &mdash;Cryptic 08:26, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Redirects are cheap. Note that there is no article on ja:. &mdash;Cryptic 08:26, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Searching in Japanese, I get 24,500 estimated results, but only 720 unique results, which establishes (if nothing else) that Google results can be used to argue anything. Regardless, there is clearly not much to be said about this song in an encyclopedia. I see little point redirecting to the series, since the lack of results in English implies that it is not a likely search term, but if other editors think it worthwhile I would have no objection to a redirect outcome either. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 12:39, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. You may have a misconception about how Google counts unique hits. It takes the first 1000 results, then calculates how many of those are "unique," so there can never be more than 1000 unique hits. See WP:GOOGLE. --Groggy Dice 05:59, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny per Lilithborne (and others). Imo  eng  12:58, 30 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge The content of this article (Shinkai no Kodoku) can easily be incorporated into Stellar Loussier, the article is referring to. Considering this, it is far more useful to redirect this into Stellar Loussier, incorporate the text where appropriate. Also, considering that the article has a name obviously from Japanese, I doubt if a significant amount of people will search using the term "Shinkai no Kodoku". --Blackhawk charlie2003 14:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
