No proof that this is real Basketball  110   what famous people say  23:25, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep or Merge the 'article' is a mess but the soundtrack apparently exists. Merge to movie? I don't know the policy on soundtracks. TRAVELLINGCARI My storyTell me yours 23:38, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep It's real, and although I haven't done an in depth survey of all coverage (it's late), it would be difficult to imagine a music project in which Nick Cave was involved that didn't pass notability guidelines. The article does require some clean up, however. --Sturm 23:39, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete without merging. The music of this film is not popularized beyond the scope of the film itself.  It would be a better approach to cover composition of the music in the film article's Production section and any opinion about the music in the Critical reaction section (if it was a much-noticed element).  A mere track listing is not encyclopedic here, especially considering that the individual songs lack notability on their own, too. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 23:46, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per added reviews; looks like the soundtrack's more important than I realized. Article could use some fleshing out beyond the track listing, though. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 12:36, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete and redirect The only thing worth saving is the mention that Nick Cave worked on the soundtrack. If you can fit that in with the film article, feel free. -Freekee (talk) 04:06, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge with film article The Dominator (talk) 04:50, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Nick Cave is a major artist and this is his latest album-length release. I've seen several reviews of it and articles about it so it meets the interpretation of WP:N at WP:MUSIC. --Nick Dowling (talk) 07:46, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I've just added three reviews of the album, all of which attest that this is a Nick Cave album. The nominator probably should have dug around for a bit longer before labeling this album a hoax - while it's hard to find references on Google as it has the same name as the movie, it does appear on many (but not all) major music websites. --Nick Dowling (talk) 09:26, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. Soundtrack albums are just as inherently notable as other widely available album releases, and the fact this is a Nick Cave release makes it all the more notable. 23skidoo (talk) 15:12, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep -- legitimate release from a notable artist. - Longhair\talk 03:41, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep The nomination rationale is that this is unverifiable – it clearly is. There is not consensus that film soundtracks, particularly ones that are not a compilation of songs, are not notable on their own merit. --Canley (talk) 04:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, there is plenty of proof that this is real, and as a Nick Cave release it's certainly notable as well. Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:59, 27 February 2008 (UTC).
 * Keep per Sturm & 23skidoo.  tomasz.  19:28, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
