Single does not meet WP:MUSIC requirements for notability Cabe6403 (Talk•Sign) 14:29, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree. Let's get a third opinion... Francium12 (talk) 14:46, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to artist. Charting single, but it didn't get much media attention it seems. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 17:48, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - neither source (both reviews) provide information indicating this is a notable song. The assertion that this song reached 34 in UK charts is not supported by either source. Rklawton (talk) 17:49, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Chart position of #31 is confirmed by the Guinness Book of British Hit Singles. One can't expect too much in the way of online media attention for a single released 15 years ago, but I'd be surprised if there aren't any print sources. Certainly there is enough published literature about the band for me to give it the benefit of the doubt. PC78 (talk) 23:05, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

DeleteRedirect. I merged the content to The Charlatans (album) which is the album the single belongs to. I do not believe there is enough information or notability to merit its own article, but a redirect to the album page is suggested. ZabMilenko 08:47, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]- If content has been merged, then I believe the article is required to be kept as a redirect. FWIW, I shall reiterate my belief that as a single from a notable band—and the lead single from an album—there will more than likely be plenty of coverage in contemporary print sources at least to make this a viable article.

- The single itself does have the potential to be article-worthy but even if deleted there are steps to take for recreating it later with new sources. For the time being a merge/redirect is a nice compromise between deletionism and inclusionism. ZabMilenko 11:18, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete fails to meet WP:MUSIC#Songs. While it has charted, I believe there isn't enough, nor will there likely be enough to warrant a reasonably detailed article, as per WP:MUSIC#Songs. The mention and reference in the album article more than covers this song. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 10:20, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
