Strong (R3hab and KSHMR song)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No significant indication of notability. We Got This Covered is a musical blog, The Bangin Beats isn't notable nor reliable either, hence fails WP:NSONG. Article is also unlikely to grow beyond stub class considering there's very little information on the Internet. Hayman30 (talk) 10:11, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - The Billboard source, the other sources and the chart are more than enough to establish notability. Unlike what the nominator said, those sources are likely to be reliable since they've been established for years, have their own staff crew and there hasn't been a bad review of these sites. Plus, no user generated content. It can also grow beyond a stub since the content added on the article is limited and there are other sources that haven't been checked yet. - The   Magnificentist  10:22, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

 * The Billboard source alone and singe chart position does not establish notability, despite it being a notable and reliable source. To quote WP:NSONG, "Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works". We Got This Covered is a blog, which is considered as a trivial source. Bangin Beats is another dodgy-looking music portal, and the provided article isn't even related to the subject, it's discussing another song. With these two excluded, there's only the Billboard source left, and I wouldn't say that it's enough considering the song has not charted outside Belgium. Pretty sure you found all these sources with a Google News search, and that's basically all sources available, hence it's very unlikely that the article could grow beyond stub class. Thus, WP:NSONG has not been met. Hayman30 (talk) 12:24, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
 * We Got This Covered is an online entertainment website 'covering the world of film, gaming and television', not a blog. I just added another source from EDM Sauce, an established source for EDM since 2012. These sources and the chart are obvious "significant indication of notability." - The   Magnificentist  12:43, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
 * We Got This Covered is a blog as they stated themselves, they started as a blog, and they're still a blog to date. They rebranded and got their own domain, but their nature has not been changed. Again, only one chart position does not establish notability, to quote WP:NSONG, "1. Has been ranked on national or significant music or sales chart s ," that's why we need more sources. With only two valid sources I wouldn't consider the song as notable. Hayman30 (talk) 12:53, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
 * They were a blog, now they're not. "We need more sources", your opinion. I think the existing sources are fine and the chart legitimizes the notability. - The   Magnificentist  13:11, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
 * "They were a blog, now they're not." Prove it. No idea why you'd consider a song that has only charted in a single region as notable. Current sources are not fine, one is a blog source and the other is unrelated. "Multiple sources" doesn't necessarily mean two sources only, considering the song has only charted in Belgium, more sources are needed, and of course that's just my opinion. I think we should just stop here and wait for other's comments as this is just a back-and-fourth situation when we already know each other's stance. Hayman30 (talk) 13:23, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete or rather merge to album if there is one (?) or artist. There are four or five single stubs - just looked at one which charted 160 in France, which deserve mentions in artist article, but are not notable Notability_(music) In ictu oculi (talk) 08:52, 29 July 2017 (UTC)
