The Best of Chalk Circle

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Poorly referenced article about a greatest hits compilation album with no particularly strong claim of notability per WP:NALBUMS. To be fair, at the time this was first created the only notability claim an album had to have was that a notable band had released it -- but the criteria have been tightened up considerably in the past 13 years, and an album now has to show much stronger evidence of notability, such as music awards, chart success and/or critical attention, and the ability to technically verify that the album exists is not automatically enough anymore. But the only source here is a directory entry in AllMusic, which just provides the track listing and fails to give it a written review at all -- but it's the critical review that determines whether AllMusic is support for notability or not, not just the existence of an AllMusic page in and of itself. There just aren't any real grounds for standalone notability here. Bearcat (talk) 20:58, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete per Bearcat's reasoning. The page fails WP:NALBUMS. ThadeusOfNazerethTalk to Me! 22:55, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to of course, per nom. Elliot321 (talk &#124; contribs) 23:17, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per well reasoned argument by nom. As pointed out, a blank Allmusic page is not a support for notability. The page must contain a staff written review, as pointed out as well. And there's nothing else. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 20:27, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete fails notability requirements; not enough material for a reasonably detailed article, HĐ (talk) 03:47, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
