[edit] My Bologna

not article worthy: Merge to "Weird Al" Yankovic — Fingers-of-Pyrex 01:51, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

Agree with Radiant: merge to "Weird Al" Yankovic (album). — Fingers-of-Pyrex 17:28, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

• Weak keep. The song is fairly notable and there are plenty of articles about less notable recordings. 23skidoo 02:16, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Gosh, I'm surprised at the number of Google hits. Keep, notable. CanadianCaesar 02:19, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep or redirect to "Weird Al" Yankovic Columbia 03:15, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. This is a notable song. Rentastrawberry 04:37, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to "Weird Al" Yankovic (album) unless expanded. JamesBurns 08:06, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to "Weird Al" Yankovic. I happen to be rather fond of his music but still, single songs do not require articles - Skysmith 09:15, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Comment - however there are many songs that do already, so there is precedent, and this is a rather notable parody. 23skidoo 11:27, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• I'd prefer a merge to "Weird Al" Yankovic (album) - the album on which the song appears. Radiant_>|< 13:13, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep most songs. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:44, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge as per Radiant. I know the album, I know the song, and while the artist is notable, this song really isn't, except (barely) as part of the album. Even the song which is being parodied had no significant influence. Barno 17:12, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. CAPS LOCK 17:31, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with "Weird Al" Yankovic (album) - and merge most songs with either the artist or the album... of course, there are plenty of cases for which I would make an exception, but this is not one of them. -- BD2412 ^talk 19:09, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)
• Weak merge perhaps delette drini ☎ 21:22, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Strong Merge - Nn; at most a footnote in My Sharona.
• Keep per Andrew Lenahan - Starblind. -- Jonel | Speak 03:52, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Silly though it is, notable song that was a milestone in a long-lived, popular artists' career. Jgm 29 June 2005 05:04 (UTC)
• Keep. It was his first widely known song, and set the bar for his long line of food-based parody songs. --DropDeadGorgias (talk) June 30, 2005 14:22 (UTC)
• Keep. Since the song predated his first album. (Gosh, I remember that, too!) Old fogey, I guess ---> Yekrats 3 July 2005 02:10 (UTC)
