No significant coverage. Did not chart. Fails WP:NALBUM. This venue is a last resort after multiple redirect overwrites. Another common target of WP:LTA/HANOI Jalen Folf (talk) 01:58, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Boney M. discography and PROTECT against reversion. Death to all articles on useless Boney M. compilations! At their discography article you will find how this band's unscrupulous managers and producers have turned seven studio albums from the 70s-80s into more than 50 barely-different compilations to annoy the band's own fans to death. Several such articles on the compilations have been through this process, as one or two semi-anonymous editors, and a clearly-identified vandal (mentioned by the nominator), insist on preserving them even though the albums are clearly non-notable. This is a really annoying pattern. Redirect and MAKE IT STICK! ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 02:54, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Boney M. discography. Meets neither WP:GNG or WP:NALBUM. The require admin approval for recreation. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 03:11, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect and protect to Boney M. discography#Non-international compilation albums, although to be honest I'd prefer the first option as this album has the same name as the much better known single and it's extremely unlikely anyone will search for the album. Fails WP:NALBUM, nothing available online apart from an AllMusic rating with no prose... and as this was only a budget compilation, missing most of the biggest hits, and only ever released in Germany, the chances of finding any more coverage of this album is going to be zero. A redirect without protection will be no use here, given this editor's insistence on reverting at every opportunity. Richard3120 (talk) 03:15, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and protect is sufficient to stop the Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Hanoi vandal who has been repeatedly recreating this article. Binksternet (talk) 04:16, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Boney M. discography. Fails WP:NALBUMS, no significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources (except just AllMusic review). No chartings, certifications or awards. Ashley yoursmile! 12:56, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect and protect per everyone above, but especially per Doomsdayer and Binksternet. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 09:08, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
