 * Comment When I searched for "Somedays" -wikipedia "Matt Wertz" I found these potential good hits. http://www.allmusic.com/album/somedays-mw0000790877 and http://www.jesusfreakhideout.com/cdreviews/Somedays.asp and http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/albumdetail.php?album_id=1759 None have a staff review, so they do not help make the case. Nothing else even remotely approaching a RS in the first five Google pages. Clearly fails notability, but PROD was removed because, and I paraphrase, the subject was notable so the album must be as well. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:22, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - I note that, other than the sources (all being from the same sites, just referencing the relevant albums), this is identical to the AfD https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Twentythree_Places - My response is just the same: This album is a stub. It meets notability, but hasn't been developed into a full article. That is its only shortcoming, not that of being notable of encyclopaedic entry. As with the prior, it is referenced on iTunes at https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/somedays/id287443236 and is a debut album, which in itself denotes the album's ubiquity. Having said that, I am well aware that ubiquity alone doesn't denote notability, but the range of factors involved do. Again, the only thing that doesn't work for this article is that it's a stub (albeit larger than most music related stubs on WP), and that's no crime. -- rm 'w a vu  01:37, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment No, the article is not a stub and therefore notable, notability requires references and you have not provided any to support such. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:59, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Where in WP:ALBUMS is referencing a requirement for notability? The ability to be referenced is. This does achieve this, I simply haven't had the time to implement these, but the implementation is not the requirement, the availability of such said sources is. -- rm 'w a vu  23:43, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, you are correct. No sources are available though and that is what I was saying. Are you saying that sources are available? If so, provide them or the case is clearly closed. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:11, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete. Stubs don't get a "get out of jail free card" with respect to notability.  They still need reliable sources.  I don't see anything obvious on Google, and the article itself is completely unreferenced.  It can be recreated if reliable sources are located.  Could also be userfied if the creator wants.  It sounds like the creator might want to work on this article. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 09:30, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per above.HotHat (talk) 09:55, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't see the sources Görlitz mentioned, or others provided, as establishing notability even under the minimum requirements of WP:GNG.  --j⚛e deckertalk 19:07, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
