[edit] Got Money

Got Money (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Non-notable song, just released today, no reliable sourcs about it. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:29, 28 May 2008 (UTC) Withdrawn The song has charted and there's a review cited. This is now a decent stub.

  • Comment Couldn't we just merge/redirect this to The Carter III, and allow for expansion when there is more info available? I see no reason for outright deletion. Zagalejo^^^ 02:47, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment I think it's a "notable song", considering Lil Wayne is a pretty huge rapper (Songs at #1 and #31 on the Billboard top 100) and this is his next big single. Also, what does it being released today have to do with anything? It's better to have a page as early as possible, isn't it? Also, the iTunes store is a pretty reliable source for a release. They have to have permission to release songs from the record label and the artist, so it's pretty obvious that this is, indeed, his next single. IAugust (talk) 02:53, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • No, it's better to have an article when there are sources available -- you know, when it's 100% certain that the song's released AND it's charted AND someone's written in depth info on it. iTunes charts are not "official" compared to, say, Billboard, and should not be included in articles. Even if it "is" obvious that this is his next single, we still need reliable sources, several of them, to verify the info.

  • Comment There. Check the page now. Got the Billboard charts of it. Happy? IAugust (talk) 03:02, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • CommentTo add to this, Got Money is obviously the third single. If you had Itunes you could check something called countdown till tha carter 3 (lil wayne's album) and it clearly states Got Money being the third single. In a couple of days it will also be added to Amazon and a cover art will be available. There is no need to delete this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Waddup2k8 (talk • contribs) 03:05, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • How is it not? It's the biggest store for singles around the world; nowadays almost all singles are first released in digital format on iTunes than anywhere else. I fail to see how is it not notable. Do yo (knome)? yes...|or no · 05:04, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • There has already been coverart made. http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/9420/gotmoneyvb9.png —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oneandonly16 (talk • contribs)
  • Comment "Got Money" has been added to the playlist on the BBC's 1Xtra radio station, they were the first major UK station to play "Lollipop" before it was announced as a single, plus I have seen cover art (admittedly I don't know if it's official). If the debate is whether or not this is going to be an official single then maybe the page should be forwarded to Tha Carter III. However there is no debate over whether it is relevant as Lil Wayne is widely considered to be the most influential rapper alive. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Markieboy1989 (talk • contribs) 16:21, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
