Beauty Through Broken Glass[edit]

An article about a musical recording that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant and where the artist's article has never existed or has been deleted QuestionOfAnarchy (talk) 11:38, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if the single is notable enough for inclusion here or not (singles usually need chart performance to justify articles) but the artist's article, Eyes Set to Kill, does exist and has not been deleted. Note also that three of the band's other singles, Reach, Liar in the Glass and This Love You Breathe, also have articles which should likely be treated the same way as this one. Merge' all four to their parent albums (both of which also do have articles already), which is the standard AFD solution for songs that aren't strongly notable in their own right. For the record, despite getting a notification on my talk page, my only prior involvement in editing this article was to add it to Category:2007 singles at a time when it was sitting in Category:Category needed.

Delete, fails notability per WP:MUSIC#Songs. No awards, no chart, no covers, no WP:RS. Esradekan Gibb ^"Talk" 22:45, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: non-notable non-charting song. JamesBurns (talk) 10:07, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or at least redirect per Bearcat's reasoning, which appears to have been ignored by the last two commenters. Deletions shouldn't be based on faulty assumptions about the non-exisntence of a band article. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:12, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge if it has a reliable source (but I could not find any from news), if not delete--Caspian blue 17:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
