Smile and Wave

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Completely lacking in available reliable secondary coverage, failing GNG. Although it is not a policy, if all an editor can scrape together is a track listing, the album probably is not notable. TheGracefulSlick (talk) 02:14, 20 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment - there are reliable sources to make this notable. The album was nominated for a Juno. and went gold in Canada. Will be adding these sources and seeing if i can find more. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 03:57, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Latest additions from MrLinkinPark333 are convincing.  --Lockley (talk) 05:11, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep - While I struggled to find in depth reviews on line, there are many references to the Juno Award nomination, which convince me that reviews must have existed at the time of the album's release. Rlendog (talk) 20:14, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment - I've found a few sources where the album was referred to "Smile & Wave". And looking in Proquest with an ampersand made a difference in looking for sources. I've been adding what I've found from ProQuest. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:34, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * The Words and Music source from the 2nd link looks promising even though I can only see a snippet, so I think that makes me more comfortable with keeping. The source in the 1st link though seems to be referring to the song, not the album, unless I am missing something. Rlendog (talk) 19:14, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Page 638 of the first link is about the album, and pg 639 is about the song by the same name off of Smile & Wave. I have a physical copy of the book as well with me. I've also added reviews from newspapers as well. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 19:32, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
