Future album in violation of WP:CRYSTAL Will (talk) 16:59, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep WP:CRYSTAL doesn't mention albums... but it does specifically allow for inclusion of notable and likely to occur future events. Nominator gives no reason to suspect these albums won't be released so, at most, they should be redirected to the notable band releasing the album, not deleted. Redirection doesn't require AFD. --W.marsh 18:30, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep if sources are added. Future != Crystal. DCEdwards1966 18:46, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

  • Keep, tells of upcoming album from notable band. →EdGl 18:26, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete (per WP:Crystal) unless at least one reference from a notable source is added to the article before the end of this AfD to back up the claim that this album is genuinely forthcoming. A1octopus 12:35, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, but redirect. The band has confirmed the nascent existence of this album at its official blog, but there are only 10 google hits on the combined terms, and nothing else seems anything close to official. The band announced that more information would be released on the album on July 17th, but have said nothing further. This lends itself to the conclusion that this particular album by this band is not notable per WP:MUSIC, which indicates that "Individual articles on albums should include independent coverage" and that "Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article, space permitting". In this particular case, I don't know that a merger of information is necessary, since the album doesn't yet exist and a separate article will likely be appropriate if it does, but the redirect seems appropriate since the band has announced it, however casually. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:57, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
