 * delete per nom. the yeezus template has no additional links besides songs, and the links for the life of pablo are not strongly tied to the album (with the exception of the tour, which is already linked in Kanye West). i do like the idea of grouping the 7-song GOOD music albums as the ye template seems to be getting at, but i think that it would be better to move that template to a more general name if it is kept. Boomur &#91;☎&#93; 18:34, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Nice4What had already created the template i had in mind at Wyoming Sessions. so, no need to keep ye album around either. Boomur &#91;☎&#93; 18:41, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I will update Wyoming Sessions to include all the relate Ye articles such as "XTCY". Support deletion :) Nice4What (talk) 18:47, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
