Fails WP:NSONG or WP:GNG. Previous redirect by User:AngusWOOF contested by User:BoxxyBoy, but other than unreliable databases, routine videos, trivial mentions, there is just a one-paragraph listicle review that might not be SIGCOV and a routine announcement on availability (also non-SIGCOV). My WP:BEFORE search found no more sources contributing to notability. VickKiang (talk) 03:55, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough per above arguments. Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:43, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Redirect Of the 13 references, 6 are non-rs, 2 are the band site so are WP:SPS sources, 1 is an apple listing, ref 12 doesn't mention it. The last three refs are 6, a interview with band and is primary, 7, Loudwire is a routine annoucement, 8 Kerrang is a straight-up PR piece. Fails WP:SIGCOV. scope_creep^Talk 04:07, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. Couldn't find any additional coverage, what's on page is clearly no good as stated above. QuietHere (talk) 06:48, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. Doesn't meet WP:NMUSIC or WP:GNG.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:15, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. The song has some minor references in fan publications and basic release announcements, but an encyclopedia is not the place for fan trivia. The song has received no reliable or significant coverage outside its album. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 12:28, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. Minimal coverage to warrant standalone article. And no, BoxxyBoy, being released as a single does NOT automatically make a song notable. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 16:51, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. The barrage of poorly-written-articles-about-barely-notable-songs-that-scrape-the-bottom-of-the-rock-charts from this user is becoming very tiring to deal with. —VersaceSpace 🌃 01:08, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Poorly written? Thanks. Not like I have improved articles that have been barely passable for years. Why don't you write an article for "Crossroads" and see if you can do better. How about it? BoxxyBoy (talk) 09:11, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
With many of your previous similar articles nominated for deletion, IMO VersaceSpace's summary is not unreasonable. Why don't you write an article for "Crossroads" and see if you can do better. How about it?- instead of commenting on a contributor could you comment on how the article passes WP:GNG or WP:NSONG? Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 09:15, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm fine if this article is deleted, but how about VersaceSpace learns to not insult my work?

Here is a list of articles I have written. Insult it if you'd like :) The Sick, the Dying... and the Dead!, Soldier On!, Nightstalkers, Dystopia, The Threat Is Real, Post American World, Fatal Illusion, Lying in State, Wake Up Dead, Good Mourning/Black Friday, Set The World Afire, Mechanix, Tornado of Souls, Chapter Four, Second Heartbeat, I Won't See You Tonight, Burn It Down, Dear God.

@BoxxyBoy: I have no interest in doing any of that. I said the articles were poorly written because they were. It's not an insult, it's criticism. Being able to take criticism is an important part of editing here. —VersaceSpace 🌃 15:40, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Poorly written"... Like I said, if you have a problem with what I have written, then "fix" it. Poorly written is a point of of view.

Adding Fiction to the list as well. (I forgot it).

Anyways, I believe everyone is in agreeance that this article can be turned into a re-direct? BoxxyBoy (talk) 01:36, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A suggestion- the sources, such as Discogs, YouTube, and Rate Your Music, fail WP:RS per WP:A/S. Next time please cite sources that are listed reliable on WP:A/S instead. VickKiang (talk) 02:28, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough. If you're trying to figure out if the song is notable, you can do so in draft, and dig out more sources, which is why I moved it there, but nope, didn't happen. Release announcements and promotions can be done at the album article. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:37, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
