 * Delete as article fails notability criteria for songs. There is no information for a standalone article, the single was not even released and it is an unlikely search term. Armbrust  Talk  Contribs  19:54, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to James Blunt. Cindamuse (talk) 10:11, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure if there's a point in having this as a redirect: better just to delete the article but leave an entry in the Stay the Night disambig page pointing to James Blunt. It seems unlikely that anyone is going to search for "Stay the Night (James Blunt song), though they might search for "Stay the Night", looking for the song by James Blunt.

 * Improved page with reputable sources regarding release, cover image and tracklisting. I hope with this information the page can be taken off the articles for deletion list. [TALK] 11:03, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
 * The sources you added give little actual information, and the first appears to be a press release, and a very short one at that. The second one appears to be a German blog. Neither of these sources demonstrate notability or could be considered reliable.  Giftiger Wunsch   [TALK]  10:07, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep First single from new album from the "You're Beautiful" guy. There's significant coverage, only hangup would be that it hasn't charted yet. But again, coverage is significant and reliable. I can add some soon - Theornamentalist (talk) 15:34, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Can you provide some links to some of this coverage in the meantime? I have been thus far unable to find any significant coverage in reliable sources.  Giftiger Wunsch   [TALK]  15:54, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem, here's what google news turned up (New York Post, Music news and various other worlwide coverage/multilingual) some swiss charts] and I think it shows Germany as having it at Number 31. (I say this sarcastically, but with a grain of sincerity) I've looked into my CrystalBall and I foresee that more coverage will likely be found later, as it's only been a week since this single has been released, and apparently his music has worldwide exposure. - Theornamentalist (talk) 16:42, 17 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - added some references, chart info, and the charts I'm sure could be expanded but I imagine them to change rapidly at this point in the songs release. Anyway, hope this helps - Theornamentalist (talk) 21:13, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
