[edit] 40 Most Awesomely Bad Breakup Songs

Non-encyclopedic VH1 countdown. Hedley 00:44, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. WP is not pointless data, or VH-1cruft.
  • Unsigned by DavidH. Hedley 00:51, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
• Oh I don't know, we keep all the FHM lists of sexiest women, etc. The VH1 page has a whole slew of such links just waiting to be filled in, and 50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs is available. We have page after page of individual star trek episodes, so how is this any worse? Maybe it will be of interest to a digital archeologist some day. Keep in a dusty corner of the attic. :) — RJH 01:18, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unnecessary POV. Besides, I quite like a few of the songs on this list. Denni☯ 01:28, 2005 July 31 (UTC)
• Delete, useless list and POV to boot. --Angr/_{tɔk tə mi} 07:43, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, subjective. There can never be consensus which songs belong here. Thuresson 08:13, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Minor point, but this is not a subjective list from the point of view of who gets to pick the songs. It's entirely generated by judges selected by VH1. The list is well-known and well-defined. Thanks. — RJH 15:17, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, Wikipedia:Is Not VH1. I just made that up. Mmmbeer 01:02, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, It has merit as an article due to the countdown being a TV show. TV shows are considered notable.Gateman1997 17:13, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as per Gateman1997. --OntarioQuizzer 17:49, 2 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete subjective unmaintainable list. JamesBurns 05:51, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
• Rename to something like VH1's 40 Most Awesomely Bad Breakup Songs of 2010 or whatever year they come from. If there is no attribution, then delete. - grubber 13:38, 2005 August 4 (UTC)
• Delete. This is both non-notable and a possible copyright violation. -Soltak 22:38, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Not maintainable. On the other hand, if any of these songs or artists have any pages, it may be relevant to mention on those pages that they qualified on this list.
