 * Keep. Top 10 Japanese album from a popular Japanese artist.--Milowent • hasspoken 16:52, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete/merge to Meg (singer) - WP:NSONGS (as mentioned above) states "Notability aside, a separate article on a song is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article" and there doesn't seem to be. (for "song" replace "album"). ŞůṜīΣĻ ¹98¹ Speak 11:02, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * NSONGS is for songs though, not albums! In any event, my keep above, to clarify is in accorance with my !vote at Articles for deletion/Room Girl, "My suggestion for Meg is that we keep the articles on her full-length albums because most if not all are independently notable, and redirect the "singles" articles to their proper albums. This would be best way to organize the coverage of this popular japanese artist. Otherwise we are going to end up with a nonsensical hodgepodge of articles."  I will clean up the album articles and redirect all the singles if we can go that way.--Milowent • hasspoken  12:21, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't personally believe that independent notability has been established for any of Meg's albums. They've clearly been successful and have received WP:ROUTINE coverage as a result but that's not enough for an independent article. Any viable sourced info should be merged into Meg's bio (which is Start class) - it is better to have one good article than a poor article and 20 zero-quality offshoots.
