Somewhere Over The Rainbow / Wonderful World
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article's subject is completely non-notable. It is in every respect a "garage band release" article, talking about YouTube hits, and there is no appropriate sourcing available.

 * Keep. Notable song. Do you really thing we should delete a song that has been performed by Louis Armstrong, Sam Cooke, Tony Bennett, and other famous singers? •••Life of Riley (T–C) 01:17, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Neutral. My comment above is withdrawn since the object of the nomination has been changed. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 15:50, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure why Wonderful World was linked on this discussion. The disambiguation page is necessary. I've no opinion on the specific song that is the apparent reference. older ≠ wiser 03:17, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Note - The article link in this AfD links to the Wonderful World disambiguation page (apparently in error). Hopefully the nominator can update the nomination to point users to the correct article. Sending message to the nominator momentarily. Northamerica1000(talk) 03:42, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I have received the message and have updated the nomination point to the appropriate location. Wer900  talkessay on the definition of consensus 04:07, 3 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete. The subject of this AfD is not Israel Kamakawiwoʻole's famous medley of these two songs (which medley does not currently have its own article), but rather about a 2010 fundraising record released by a high school in Yorkshire. Here is a single local news story about that record.  I didn't find anything else. --Arxiloxos (talk) 04:19, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - Some sources found:
 * Harrow Times: Popularity grows for Harrow charity single
 * Filey & Hunmamby Mercury: Chart hopes for school's song
 * Scarborough Evening News: Ellie's record soars into charts
 * and a passing mention here:
 * Daily Mail: Would you tell YOUR child she was dying of cancer? Heather didn't and she believes it prolonged her daughter's life...

 * Merge to Scalby School. Per WP:NALBUMS and WP:NSONGS, individual singles (the rendition of a song as performed by a particular artist, as opposed to the song overall) usually do not merit their own articles. This single didn't hit an official chart (although it did hit the Amazon and iTunes charts) and thus I don't think it even merits a separate section within Over the Rainbow. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:31, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge to Scalby School, per the rationale presented above by User:Metropolitan90. Northamerica1000(talk) 09:57, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
