[edit] Uncle Fucka

Not notable enough outside of the context of South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut. This article was made a redirect to the movie on 30 June of last year, but was changed back within a day and thus should get its week in AfD. Brian G. Crawford 17:50, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

• A redirect and protect sounds sensible...and catchy. PJM 18:52, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep notable songs from notable movies. I don't think this is absurd to have an article of on its own. Wasn't it nominated for an MTV award? --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 19:50, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep. I have to agree with badlydrawnjeff here. According to the article the song won some kind of MTV award. Why on earth if a song is that prominent would we want to delete, let alone going so far as to protect the page? I have to wonder if this is not some kind of prudishness at work since many of the South Park songs have articles here and if South Park is not your bag we also have a ton of articles on songs from musicals at category:Songs from musicals. Isn't Uncle Fucka just as good as Glitter and Be Gay or Seventy-Six Trombones? At the very least, shouldn't we be talking about merging this somewhere? -- JJay 21:32, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. For the record, I think that this song is funny, and I really enjoy South Park, but I don't think that this song needs its own article, even if it did win some MTV award. I'm not being prudish, I'm being prudent in nominating this for deletion. Brian G. Crawford 21:58, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
  • That's fine, but is it really prudent to nominate an award winning song? --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 22:08, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

• Well it's OK to be prudent I guess and my remarks were not addressed to you per se. I just think it's kind of strange that we have lots of articles on songs that my grandparents are probably grooving to in heaven (classics I know, but maybe Uncle Fucka is a future classic), but songs that everyone was talking about on earth not too long ago and that seem to google well [1] people want to protect. I could maybe understand it if the page was a joke or a vandal page but it looks like a serious little effort. Anyway that's my two cents. -- JJay 22:16, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. How often is a profanity-laced musical-style song and dance number in an animated movie nominated for a major award? That's right: Never. Except for this one. In other words, it's notable enough for its own article. GrandmasterkaImage:Blend Flag.jpg^{Impart wisdom} 01:49, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per WP:MUSIC/SONG - having won an award. Agree also with the fact that such a ridiculously vulgar song could even get nominated let alone win such an award makes it a notable song. Cursive 01:46, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as notable song. There was another song from the album nominated for an Oscar too if memory serves. Capitalistroadster 02:37, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep For some reason I have to agree with Cursive. The song deserves it's own page. Nigelthefish 18:38, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
