Sweatshirt (song)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Thoroughly nonnotable. "21st most disliked." Really? - üser:Altenmann >t 05:51, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak KeepThe article needs improving, however the song has reached the Billboard Top 100, which does give the song notability. RickinBaltimore (talk) 14:23, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * No significant coverage. In modern days of youtube "Top 100" is subject to ridiculous quirks, based in youtube views, which are not based on fame and notability, but on random ways of gossip. In this case it was a result of massive trolling (of an idiot, deservedly), as evidenced by youtube comments. Of course this is my "original research", but there is absolutely no "relliable research" of the subject, hence my suggestion of deletion. - üser:Altenmann >t 15:06, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm finding some coverage it looks like here:, though this might be more about Musical.ly than the song. RickinBaltimore (talk) 15:12, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * comment - the song appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 last week, at position #90. It is off the chart this week.  As it passes WP:NSONG #1, I wouldn't call it "thoroughly nonnotable", but I'm not sure it passes generally in NSONG, either.    78.26   (spin me / revolutions) 16:01, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment: I'd suggest refocusing the article as Jacob Sartorius rather than on the single, as it is more likely that in coming months there will be sources that focus on the person than the song, but at the moment we don't know if he's going have anything more than his 15 minutes of fame, and this seems like it could be a case of WP:TOOSOON.

 * Comment Methinks this is unnotable. But I will "give the article creator sometime to improve the article". I LOVE YOU JACOB SARTORIUS XOXOXO (talk) 19:47, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Update Tis been more than 7 seconds and no improvement at all has been made at all. I watched one his vines and it sucked, time to vote. I LOVE YOU JACOB SARTORIUS XOXOXO (talk) 19:48, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * AfDs normally take 7 days to reach consensus. Also, this isn't a vote but a discussion on if the subject is notable or not. RickinBaltimore (talk) 19:50, 8 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep - Meets Wikipedia's WP:MUSIC criteria. Notable due to charting on multiple Billboard charts. SomeoneNamedDerek (talk) 21:10, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Has made the Billboard Hot 100 and appears to have a claim about the dislike count that, on the surface spurious, actually means it's achieved a degree of attention and notoriety. It could also be merged and redirected to his article, however. KaisaL (talk) 22:26, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per KaisaL - I mentioned this on the Jacob Sartorius article. Definitely notable. -- Zero talk 14:11, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. I declined the A9 speedy due to the Billboard charting, which does meet our criteria for inclusion. Crow  Caw  18:41, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
