Walking With a Ghost (song)
Very small article about a non-notable song from a not widely-known album. Delete &mdash;M e ts501 talk 22:36, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. Nom is fairly wrong.  Tegan and Sara are a fairly notable indie duo, and the song was released on an EP of the same name by The White Stripes late last year.  Song is absolutely notable, as is the album its from. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEMES?) 23:14, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. If The White Stripes cover your song, it should suffice. Jadriaen 02:17, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: Doesn't seem to be notable per guidelines for music or those proposed for songs. --Chaser 02:22, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Notable per WP:MUSIC if not hugely well known. This song is on my 20 songs car listening list.  Georgewilliamherbert 04:35, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: from Billboard.com, apparently, Tegan and Sara have never hit the charts ... so I don't see why this song deserves its own article.  Anyone who wants to keep it, I suggest merging the info to Tegan and Sara or a page about the album, if one exists.  Mango juice talk 04:47, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Most indie bands don't hit the Billboard charts. They have had music on TV shows like "Grey's Anatomy" and "The L Word," however.  Seeing as the song has been covered by the White Stripes, I'm not sure there's one single appropriate merge target. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEMES?) 10:50, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Still don't think the song deserves its own article; I agree with the WP:MUSIC/SONG guidelines even though it's a proposal, and this song appears to meet none of the criteria, where it's suggested that meeting 2 is sufficient. As for merging, there's very little info here; I can take care of it.  Mango juice talk 11:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with So Jealous. Standard practise is that songs appear on the article about the album or band. Stifle (talk) 15:03, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge as per Stifle. If the song had been covered by multiple artists rather than just one particularly popular one, I'd have said keep. Ac@osr 17:50, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
