Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Squirrel Had To Die

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was MERGE into a separate section in Cledus T. Judd. There was enough of a merge desire voiced to sway me to making the least-destructive close, which is Merge rather than Delete. I did add a {{sources}} to the new section. Inclusion of the squirrel song in the Judd overloads that short article a bit with squirrel-song material... so it's not ideal. But I didn't see enough of a consensus or argument to outright delete it. Herostratus 03:50, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

• Merge The article should be merged into Cledus T. Judd. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scope creep (talk • contribs)
• Conditional Merge per above, if we can find some proof that he actually wrote the song and some basic info about it. I can only find 3 hits for it on google, and none of them have information like the year it was written. If we can't find that info, delete.

Also, his discography doesn't mention it. Ultra-Loser Talk / Contributions 02:00, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:BAND. Not in Gracenote. --John Nagle 04:17, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Not sure this is notable enough for its own article; perhaps if valid, merge into the Cledus T. Judd article. Y control 13:24, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete absent evidence that this song is significant enough to deserve a mention, it should be deleted outright.-- danntm ^T _C 20:39, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn notable, not listed in Cledus T. Judd [1] discography.--Dakota 20:49, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
• Comment Note that the correct name of this article is "Goodbye Squirrel" (makes sense, since the song it parodies is "Goodbye Earl"), which does appear on the Cletus T. Judd album Just Another Day in Parodies. Whether it is notable or not is another story... Wavy G 01:19, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge — Suggest merge into Cledus T. Judd. –- kungming·2 | ^(Talk·^Contact) 01:03, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
