Just another "special edition" volume for the popular Now! series. These albums never receive significant coverage in reliable sources, are rarely reviewed, and chart high on a compilation chart because 1) there're not that many compilation albums and 2) they are well promoted. This one, in particular, hasn't even been released yet and fails the requirements of WP:NALBUMS. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 17:00, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to Now That's What I Call Music! discography#Special editions. Unable to find sufficient coverage for this to-be-released compilation to warrant a standalone article. It does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:NALBUMS at this time. Plausible search term; the earlier attempt to redirect seems reasonable to me. Gongshow Talk 12:57, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- This author has created similar articles in the past, such as Now That's What I Call Chill, which was deleted per AfD. He refuses to take part in the deletion discussions, and his only response on talk pages in defense has been that they provide useful information for people to decide if they want to buy the albums, as shown here and here. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 15:32, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Fair points. I suppose I went with redirecting at first here as a sort of compromise, but since that was already tried before the AfD and didn't stick, I do support deletion over it being kept. Gongshow Talk 17:02, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect per Gongshow. It definitely exists, and we can verify that and cover that in context with the CD series. No sources to establish separate notability, which is typical of these kinds of quickie compilations. Vcessayist (talk) 02:03, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect - the above makes sense. --Nouniquenames 22:50, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
