Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dance, Dance Dance

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 delete. Notability is not inherited; an album needs to be notable in its own right. Note that WP:MUSIC#Albums says only that "albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia" (emphasis added). There is no evidence in the article that the album is sufficiently notable, and indeed no independent coverage of any sort is cited. -- ChrisO 22:00, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dance, Dance Dance

While WP:MUSIC permits normally non-notable albums of notable musicians, this is simply a list of data without any context or commentary. Mbisanz 02:15, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Agree with nom; Most other articles of this type have other commentary, notability assertions, etc... This lacks completely. - Rjd0060 03:30, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and Cleanup - The page for the artist, Gene Summers, is in dire need of some shaping up, but he appears to have recorded enough albums so as to make merging the track listings into the parent article ungainly. Track listings of albums are inherently encyclopedic, so this should be kept, and an infobox added, etc. Chubbles 04:08, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Deletion policy says that if an article can be improved, it should not be deleted. This article isn't much right now, but as an album by a notable musician, there's probably more to say on the subject, and the article should be allowed to stand until some stalwart Simmons fan comes along to expand upon it, in my opinion. -FisherQueen (Talk) 11:04, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge this isn't notable to warrent its own article and if it does just merge it with Gene Summers. DBZROCKSIts over 9500!!! 12:14, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, studio album by a notable artist. Needs a cleanup, certainly, but that is no reason for deletion. J Milburn 16:51, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
