Suga Mama

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

It wasn't released as a single, just to music channels in the UK and I think that this information can be merged into the B'Day article Surfer-boy94 (talk) 23:28, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. The song didn't receive a conventional physical release as a single, but it was given promotion independent of the album, so the statement "[i]t wasn't released as a single" is rather misleading&mdash;particularly given that digital downloading is redefining the definition of a "single" (see Billboard). Also, Notability (music) states, "A separate [song] article is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; permanent stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album." I'm not sure how "reasonably detailed" is defined, but I'm pretty certain that the article isn't a stub. The B'Day article is already very long, and though at a glance it appears to be in need of a little tightening, I'm not sure it would be appropriate for content containing information specific to the song to be included in the album article. In any case, AFD is for proposals for deletion, not merging&mdash;if you think the article should be merged somewhere, please follow the instructions at Help:Merging and moving pages.

 * Keep. Notability is rather the issue here. But notability does not mean a song should be released as a single. Also, maybe in other place the song is not notable enough but in Europe, it is. I was thinking also of merging; B'Day was just revamped by me and I personally assert that its long and need professional copy-editing. Everything important in the article is already mentioned in the mother article. --BritandBeyonce (talk) 02:00, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

 * And why? Give rationales so that the admin can decide what to do in the future. --BritandBeyonce (talk) 09:59, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
