Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Sad But True Story of Ray Mingus


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to Sex & Violins. Consensus is clearly in favour of removing the article, but there is no clear cut consensus on whether to redirect or to merge and to which target. The people who argued "merge" have not contested the "redirect" arguments so redirect it is, not that there is much difference in the positions and people can still copy content over if desired. As for the redirect target, I am picking the more recently proposed one but people are free to alter it. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:47, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

No evidence of notability per GNG, NMUSIC. Wikipedia is not a collection of oddities, fun facts, and indiscriminate information and not a platform for promotion Steve Quinn (talk) 05:36, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete A song is not notable just because its name is long, and there is no evidence that this song is notable for any reason. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  06:11, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Merge with article on Rednex - Wikipedia has an article on them, and the two sentences in this article could be merged into the longer article without too much difficulty. Vorbee (talk) 07:57, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge with article on Rednex - I agree with Vorbee above. /FredrikT (talk) 14:11, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Sex & Violins. The album is a better target than the band, because the full title is too long (and stupid) to justify any coverage on the Rednex page.  No content needs to be merged, as most of the article content is the full title. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 01:04, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree with Cullen328 above that a song is not notable just because its name is long. Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 03:42, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Sex & Violins, the song's parent album, as per power~enwiki. I'm unable to find coverage to meet WP:NSONGS and there's nothing worth merging in my view.  gongshow  talk  07:47, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
