[edit] Who Will Survive

Murder by Death is not a notable band just for having played with a few notable ones. Even less notable than Murder by Death is this album which does not need an entire page to itself. I am also nominating for deletion all song subpages of Who Will Survive so please indicate your opinion about that. --Stellis 10:31, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 11:14, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

• Weak delete of the album, strong delete of all of the songs It is generally accepted that all albums of notable artists deserve their own articles, but I disagree with this idea, especially concerning a band that is not incredibly well-known nor incredibly heralded. As far as the songs... well, duh. They're songs. Even if they were all singles, none of them would need their own pages. -- Kicking222 15:26, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Album, delete songs. I think that the band is notable enough for their album to get it's own page, but the songs are not notable enough to get their own pages. They're a notable band, but not Beatles notable. --PresN 16:29, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete songs, Merge album with band article. Rohirok 17:10, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge, seems to be a lot of articles for not much content. The song articles look like just boilerplate+copyvio; delete all of those. -Sanbeg 18:21, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete songs possibly keep album article --RMHED 19:40, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep the album. Murder By Death meets WP:MUSIC easily for touring and charting, and a notable band with multiple albums should be able to have individual articles for the albums. Merging would just clutter up the band article. However, delete all the songs as they are not notable in themselves. --Joelmills 02:26, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep the album and band. I believe Murder by Death meets WP:MUSIC, specifically for touring (in UK and nationwide in the United States) and for being featured in non-trivial published works, such as spin magazine. - Dozenist talk 23:36, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
• Comment After this AfD has been closed, the album article (assuming it is kept) should be moved to its full title as opposed to the shortened "Who Will Survive". Unless a name is ludicrously long, such as When the Pawn, an article should be titled using the complete name. -- Kicking222 18:55, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
