[edit] Motörhead (song; live)

Same reason as Ace of Spades (song; live), above. --Moochocoogle 22:15, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, notable record release. Kappa 22:34, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Motörhead (song). Of course, if it seems illogical that someone would type "Motörhead (song; live)", then just delete it. Jaxl | talk 22:42, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

When the singles section of the discography on the Motorhead page was set up, it was formatted like that, the article was written from the red link. I checked the date position and listing in my book, "The Illustrated Collectors Guide to Motorhead", where it appears in the official single discography.Alf 13:44, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

• Redirect to Merge with Motörhead (song). Redirects are fun and cheap!  BD2412 ^talk 22:54, August 12, 2005 (UTC)
  • After seeing the work put into this, a mere redirect would be inappropriate. Preserve the information, but keep it in one article. -- BD2412 ^talk 15:14, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect as per Jax1. Capitalistroadster 00:56, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect as above, again. --Etacar11 01:00, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep the live song version reached no6 in the UK charts, it predecessor (the object the redirect) didn't reach anywhere. Another intial redirect from Moochocoogle, removing, pictures, data, lyrics from the merged to article, without note or placing deleted data on talk. The motorhead singles all deserve a place, take a look at the motorhead discography single section and suggest what to do if they are deleted, leave the links red? A reader cannot browse ther timeline without it, each single supported a different album. These are not 'just' song pages they form part of the Motorhead discography. I left a polite note on Moochocoogles page to say why I unmerged his work and the reponse is immediate VfD. Alf 11:42, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
  • As with AoS, above, please read my merge here. Again, no information or pictures were deleted. --Moochocoogle 20:19, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
    • You did embed the items I do apologies for that, the picture was in a place I didn't expect, from a reader point of view I find it confusing, chart listing, producer, space for timings (when I have a break to time the ones that aren't on the records), album position all of these are really unclear (IMHO). A note on the article or my talk page have alerted me to the ongoing discussion on rules for articles subject to this catgory - I understand that a consensus is forming that supports your edits, however, loss of clarity in the topic for the want of two pages would be a shame.
• Keep -- it's a different record release, with a different cover picture and a different B-side track, and at a different point in the chronology. *Dan* 12:27, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Merging these will diminish the value and clarity of both entries (they should have links to each other though) NoSeptember 13:28, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• KeepThis release is notable in and of itself. Hamster Sandwich 01:51, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep This is a seperate release, and so is equally deserving of a seperate page as any full length album- particularly as it enjoyed some degree of chart success. 7Munkys 09:29, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. It makes perfect sense to keep it. This is an encyclopedia, and if you have one article for two separate things, it will confuse people.--Methegreat 00:37, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
