The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (song)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Album track by Iron Maiden which was never issued as a single, and didn't garner significant attention. Therefore, I don't feel the song warrants its own article. The article was even created with the edit summary "i fuck my self". LuciferMorgan (talk) 13:49, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - Song hasn't garnered enough coverage to warrant its own article. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 17:52, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - actually what's happening here is that someone saw the need for an article listing songs that were influenced by the short story of the same title, with Iron Maiden's song being the most famous. The short story article already contains the same information so there is no need for this song-oriented article to exist. D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 22:36, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
 * FYI - Also note that there was once a slow and inconclusive split discussion, with a comment appearing about once every eight months on average, which may have inspired the creation of this article. Still unnecessary due to repeated info, and that info might have come together after the split discussion, for what it's worth. D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 23:26, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
