The result was keep. The addition during this discussion of properly cited information showing that this album placed on charts and earned platinum means it's notable, and most people have agreed. Non-admin closure. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 10:40, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

100% Hits: The Best of 2006[edit]

I do not know if I've done this right.I've nominated this article for deletion because it lacks notability. Best of compilation albums and anthologies aren't notable and their inclusion isn't of any encyclopedic value.Also this article is simply a list of what's on the album.Tjc (talk) 13:25, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete You did it right. However, I don't see any references anywhere; the album's title only gets six hits. There seem to be other albums in this series that are equally non-notable, you might want to check those too.

Weak KEEP. "Best of" albums and anthologies can be notable. While it may not have the status of the multi-platinum selling series So Fresh in Australia, this one was the #14 compilation album in Australia in 2006 and was platinum certified [1], which may make it notable under WP: MUSIC. Of course, the article can definitely use expanding. --Wolfer68 (talk) 19:58, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and expand. I agree with Wolfer68. This album is quite notable, in that it has won awards, and each So Fresh album has an article, and these albums have similar notability within Australia. However, I do see that it need significant expanding. I would prefer this article to be kept, and noted for expansion, rather than deletion. While it does not have much information so far, it does do what it is supposed to do

...album pages so users can get the basic information fast, creating high-quality new pages, ensuring a standardized format and make articles as informative as possible.

In my opinion, this article lets users get the basic information about the CD fast, and therefore should be kept. Adammw (talk) 05:01, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Chronology. Widely available music cd range. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ThisMunkey (talk • contribs) 14:49, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep : as per Adammw. Notable album (charted #14 in Australia and certified platinum). Europe22 (talk) 02:45, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - If the album has charted and been certified platinum it undoubtedly is notable. Wisdom89 _{(_T / ^C)} 04:58, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for failure to assert notability. Biruitorul (talk) 15:51, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The article itself might fail to assert notability, but this discussion determines whether or not something meets the criteria per WP:MUSIC. As noted above, it does. Wisdom89 _{(_T / ^C)} 18:06, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability should be asserted within a particular article, not its deletion debate. Biruitorul (talk) 08:45, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - failure to assert notability shouldn't be grounds for deletion though; such assertion should just be encouraged to be added to the article. --Wolfer68 (talk) 09:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The debate has been going on since February 29; isn't it high time someone did that? Biruitorul (talk) 15:29, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Albums and songs-related deletion discussions.——Torc. ^(Talk.) 05:31, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
