Remixes (Arthur Loves Plastic album)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I am nominating a group of remix albums by the one artist. They lack coverage in independent reliable sources. Lack reviews, charting, awards. Nothing coming close to WP:NALBUMS. Just a bunch on bad external links trying to publicise the album. The only references are the artist own site, internet archive, garageband. None independent reliable sources. The external links are just linkspam. Others nominated are:

Comment. At random I plugged in Now 83 and find that every album in the Now Series has not only a page (judging by the navbox) but presumably a redirect or two. These are basically list articles which sometimes have a lead that says it topped the compilation charts, otherwise just the date of publication and a track listing. Many are marked for lack of sources. Are they, in itself, notable? The individual songs are, at face value, notable, and the series itself is probably notable, but are compilations/remixes de facto notable? I presume so, but fail to see how: we'd end up listing every (issue of every) chart and every entry on it, by their mutual assertions of notability. Which I imagine, alas, is the case.

I appreciate list articles don't have to be notable in themselves. But these articles, which are list articles, don't claim to be, so should stand on their own feet. Most of the "Now That's What I Call Music" articles should go, too. Si Trew (talk) 01:20, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
