Three Stars and a Sun

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:GNG. Indeed it is a common motif in Philippine-related officialdom, but no single source, including those cited in the article, covers the "three stars and a sun" as a topic in itself. Term only was only coined by a rapper named Francis Magalona, but no coverage before that. None of the writings of Emilio Aguinaldo, who supposedly designed it, cover the topic. Trying to look for "Tres estrellas y un sol" -wikipedia Filipinas in Google to see for Spanish-language sources only returns 8 hits. Probably because tres estrellas y un sol was a made-up translation by the author himself. 舎利弗 (talk) 02:26, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Redirect to either Francis Magalona or to Flag of the Philippines. While the term hasn't really been covered in reliable sources, Francis Magalona had a song with that name, so the title could be a useful redirect to his article. Alternatively, should consensus here say so, another possible target page could be our article on the flag of the Philippines. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:55, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm in favor of redirecting to Francis Magalona in case deletion fails to build consensus. 舎利弗 (talk) 07:18, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Freeman (Francis Magalona album) instead since the song is at least discussed there (even though only in passing).-- Lenticel ( talk ) 01:46, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Good idea. 舎利弗 (talk) 03:25, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I think the article on the album is a better target than Magalona's article, too. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 14:08, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
