[edit] Full Circle (Hieroglyphics album)

Full Circle (Hieroglyphics album) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Entry says nothing useful, and the album does not appear notable enough to warrant its own entry Iridescenti 00:31, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment Can you explain why you AfD-listed this album, and not the other by the same artist, Third Eye Vision? Wikipedia seems to have more than a few album-stubs like this, and I don't understand the need for this AfD. It seems to me that you could merge the content into Hieroglyphics (band) and redirect without the need for deletion. ~ Booya Bazooka 01:36, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, merge and redirect to Hieroglyphics (band). Not notable on its own but ok to keep as part of band info. Mallanox 02:28, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge and Redirect to Hieroglyphics (band). — Arjun 03:13, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Seems fairly straightforward, hopefully no one will mind if I go ahead and do this. Merged and redirected, both albums. ~ Booya Bazooka 06:27, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep According to WP:MUSIC, every album by a notable band is considered notable. Tarinth 13:45, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. Re the first post by Booyabazooka - only reason I AfD'd this & not the other, was that this was the one the random article brought up. Didn't want to go straight ahead and merge just in case this was the 'Sgt Pepper' of hip hop and I'd just not heard of it, as I'm not a hip hop fan. Iridescenti 11:07, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment, I just restored the article [1] as it was redirected today by Booyabazooka to Hieroglyphics (band), which is not appropriate as the AfD is still ongoing. --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 14:13, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Appears I missed the above statement by Booyabazooka, but I still think the redirect should wait until the AfD is over (if that is the conclusion). --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 14:14, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, per Tarinth. --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 14:15, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Tarinth and WP:MUSIC Since the band is considered notable, so is the album. TSO1D 22:34, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment I am not concerned with notability as much as with article content. These albums have none. Since there are only two, and the band's article is not particularly long, what's wrong with the merge? ~ Booya Bazooka 22:54, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Logistical comment: Deletion is definitely not going to be the result here. Was I wrong in stepping over the AfD bureaucracy? We don't need AfD for this discussion. (Btw, I have reverted my changes to the other two articles for consistency) ~ Booya Bazooka 22:54, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment AfD is not an appropriate forum for improving article content. To improve article content, you can make edits yourself; you could mark it with things like {{expert}} in hope that someone with subject knowledge will improve it (as well as a number of similar tags); or you could initiate a discussion on the talk page of the article.

  • Merge and redirect Somebody had merged the content of the two albums into the artist page. This was a good merge. The page didn't become overly long or anything of that nature, and the content was still present on WP. I'm not seeing the problem. GassyGuy 06:18, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep This is a album by a notable group. --Ted87 23:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
