[edit] War?

The current content is not encyclopedic at all, and even if it were to be cleaned up, this particular song does not really warrant its own article. Should be redirected to System of a Down (album) MrHate 06:02, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

• I say redirect to the album, but you don't really have to list it on VfD if all you want is a redirect; you can do that yourself. :-) ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 06:15, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: Your wisdom overshadows my ignorance. Perhaps that would've been a good idea :) However, perhaps a delete might be suitable also. MrHate 07:27, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

• Is this the same song as "War (song)"? If so, then I say redirect and merge since that article discusses different versions of the song. If this is a different song, delete but keep a redirect to War (song). 23skidoo 06:21, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: They are different and unrelated songs. MrHate 07:27, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

• Yes War (song) was written by Barrett Strong who had the #1 US hit with it in 1970. Malakian and Tankian of System of a Down wrote War? which is a track from their first album. Our War disambiguation record claims it was a single but there is no record of it charting. My suggestion is that it should be a redirect to War (disambiguation) 203.26.16.66 08:01, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

    • Redirect per Capitalistroadster. Kappa 08:42, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Hang on. I'll make a Flash animation of a Jack Russell Terrier saying "War?" and cocking its head so we have notable content for this article, because as we know, every Flash animation ever made is notable and encyclopedic Redirect. — Phil Welch 00:34, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• War? What is it good for? Absolutely nothing! Redirect. Lord Bob 08:30, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)
