Draft:Characters (Freak Neil Inc album)


There doesn't seem to be much written about this album in independent reliable sources. There is no band article to use as a redirect target. &mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 03:56, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Anne, you worked seriously on this, and in the end you have concluded that it can never be shown to meet WP:NALBUMS? Even so, why not let it go through the normal G13 process?  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:10, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * SmokeyJoe, that was my intention, but I guess I improved it enough that postponed its deletion. Someone else could do the same thing in six months.  No one but me has worked on it for nearly three years.  As to why I kept working on it: every six months when it became eligible for db-g13 there seemed to be just enough new information to tempt me on...but not enough to pass an AfC submission IMO.  This time I found nothing new. I'd be happy if someone else was more successful. &mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 13:28, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for trying. I find cases like this so deflating.  A good effort, so close, but in the end, no.  Referring the original author to Alternative outlets seems to offer a little kindness.  I wish these near misses, but certain misses, could be merely softdeleted so that the original author can benefit from the records, should they choose to continue here.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:58, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. WP:SOFIXIT. Try doing some actual work, visit a library, don't destroy the work of others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.171.123.181 (talk) 09:06, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Editor is banned. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:00, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * IP 166, your snide remark is aimed at the wrong person. I have spent thousands of hours rescuing drafts like this... and I was in a library yesterday. Most of the work on this draft was done by me; I had to rewrite the original text which was cobbled together from commercial product descriptions.  I have given up on it, but you are welcome to improve the draft yourself if you can and thereby convince other editors that it should be kept.&mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 13:28, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The editor is a troll. No one has an obligation to order anyone else to volunteer. If deleted, someone else can always offer to work on it and have it restored. That least this discussion will show up if someone searches for this album name. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:00, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
