[edit] Soul Mate and other

This and Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/You Scared the Lovin' Outta Me were tagged on Jun 15 but not listed on VfD.

The same reasoning would certainly apply for nominating the other similar articles on songs of the same album: Comin' Round the Mountain, Smokey, If You Got Funk, You Got Style, and Adolescent Funk. So I nominate this other 4 articles too. No vote here.--Nabla 17:30, 2005 Jun 23 (UTC)

Same articles as the nominated also deletion candidates:

Atmosphere (song), Baby I Owe You Something Good, Balance (song), Be My Beach, Better by the Pound, Cholly (Funk Getting Ready to Roll), Field Maneuvers, Foot Soldiers (Star Spangled Funky), Freak of the Week, Get off Your Ass and Jam, Good to Your Earhole, Grooveallegiance, Holly Wants to Go to California, I'm Never Gonna Tell It, Into You, Lunchmeatophobia (Think!...It Ain't Illegal Yet!), No Head No Backstage Pass, (Not Just) Knee Deep, One Nation Under a Groove (song), Stuffs And Things, Take Your Dead Ass Home! (Say Som'n Nasty), The Song Is Familiar, Uncle Jam, Who Says a Funk Band Can't Play Rock?

• IMO you should make another nomination for those articles. Adding them here 6 days after the voting started doesn't look right to me, since most voters only considered the initial 6 nominated articles, not these.--Nabla 2005-06-29 18:46:16 (UTC)
  • They are exactly same type of article relating to the same criteria. They were already marked for VfD days ago. You could check their histories to verify this. JamesBurns 30 June 2005 03:04 (UTC)
    • OK. I'll vote to delete these too (so far they have 2/0 to delete), and request that the admin closing this waits a couple days more, to give a chance to others.--Nabla 2005-06-30 15:20:46 (UTC)

This page was created nearly three years ago and has had no substantial updates since then. It is incomplete, does not conform to Wikipedia standards, and contains little useful information. It should be deleted. DanMS 02:59, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete and redirect all. All relevant information already at Hardcore Jollies, the album article. Smokey may be a more relevant redirect to something else.--Nabla 17:30, 2005 Jun 23 (UTC)
• Delete all, duplicate content, unencyclopedic non notable songs. JamesBurns 06:48, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete all, because their content is mainly duplicate and consisting of a critique, and none of them are notable. Falcon 16:16, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete all - POV, notability not established, check out the formatting - looks suspiciously like a cut and paste from some review site.... Leanne 02:27, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete all, POV, not encyclopaedic. Megan1967 04:14, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, not encyclopaedic. -- Toytoy 18:34, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)
• I think some time ago User:TUF-KAT made these bad articles for all Funkadelic/Parliament/George Clinton songs. I took a handful of the most unsalvageable ones and turned them into redirects to their albums (I didn't want to bring them to VfD as I expected a big fight over this; maybe it's coming). Such redirects would be acceptable to me, though perhaps deletion is better. I would, however, like to note that, although it's not listed here, One Nation Under a Groove (song) is part of this VfD, and as it was on List of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, I decided to clean it up last week. I probably didn't remove all the POV (as there wasn't too much else there), but it's substantially better than the others, and could perhaps warrant keeping (with a bit more cleaning). -R. fiend 03:56, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Your lack of understanding on a given subject or cultural matter need not result in deletion or change. A vote of NO needs to be placed here until you can accept that you are not at all familiar with the art of George Clinton.
