Genius (R. Kelly song) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Both songs fail WP:NSONGS due to lacking any lasting non-trivial significant coverage in reliable sources and lack of charting. I see no chance of either of these articles expanding to anything at this point. Redirect to the album page compromise was denied by article creator, so best to delete the articles and if anyone sees the need for redirects they can be recreated.

  • Delete both or redirect if desired as well. From what I understand, the song charted on Billboard once but there's not much attention for this song and Google News didn't provide much either. Another search provided some magazine articles but it's probably minor at most. SwisterTwister talk 18:41, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@SwisterTwister: Should that be considered a delete vote for both articles? At least "Genius" was a single, "Cookie" was just a song released for free prior to the album. STATic message me! 19:32, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Clarified now, it seems both songs aren't essentially notable on their own and are probably better known through the album itself. As for "Cookie", it caused some stir because of the sexuality (it's not the first time) so it's nothing major. SwisterTwister talk 01:22, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
