Fails WP:NSONGS. Was until recently a redirect to the album's page. I would have suggested a merge, but I'm not sure it's notable enough even for that. I think the redirect should be reinstated. Adam9007 (talk) 00:01, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Revert to Redirect to Images and Words. In fact, this could have been done without an AfD, which would have been preferable, given that the AfD is so overloaded all the time. If you wanted to discuss it first, a better place would have been the article talk page. Seriously, I'd close this AfD, but I'm not really familiar with the non-admin closing process...

  • Comment: The general rule of thumb is that redirects are WP:CHEAP on Wikipedia and there's really not much lost to keeping them as long as they make sense and they seem like a reasonable redirect. Since the article was created there appears to have been two attempts to un-redirect the article, so that suggests that there are likely people looking for this so it'd be a valid search term. However that said, it looks like a 2009 AfD closed as redirect and there's nothing in the article that suggests that anything has changed since then. I'm going to close this, delete the article history, turn it into a redirect, and protect it against recreation until sourcing can be provided to establish independent notability.
