Comment I am trying to understand what sets this apart from any of the other ones in Category:WWE albums. Unless I am missing something, they all meet #5 in WP:NALBUM, but this is not a subject I edit often so I am not really sure. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 18:40, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t think that’s the intended application to that music guideline. I think that’s saying that, for example, if WWE made the new Shinedown or Papa Roach single their next theme song for their next special pay per view event of whatever, it’d probably be a notable song. I could be mistaken too though - most of the time these choose really popular songs that easily meet the GNG without that. Anyways, point being, I think we’d generally still want to see it meet the WP:GNG through third party sourcing. Sergecross73 msg me 19:58, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think the difference is that some of those albums have been promoted significantly and covered in reliable sources. While this is just a random compilation that was released that is not a notable release to anyone. StaticVapor message me! 23:04, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, and looking at the rest of these WWE music articles, I’m guessing the opposite of what Galatz was saying is true - none of these releases are notable. They all seem to be little more than track listings and a paragraph of prose sourced to retail listings and/or ITunes/Spotify. Unless all these articles were written by writers who were all just completely striking out in finding and using reliable sources, they all may be non-notable.

@Sergecross73: I do not believe thats the opposite of what I said. I see them all as the same, either all notable or all not. I have never really worked with the WP:NALBUM criteria before, so I am trying to get a better understand of how they are applied, that is why I didn't vote. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 11:12, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, I didn’t mean it as commentary against you personally. You said they probably all meet criteria # 5. My stance is that they probably all fail it, and the GNG. When I say opposite, I just meant we’re on opposite ends - you say “pass”, I say “fail”. That’s all. Sergecross73 msg me 11:37, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as nom notes, it fails the WP:GNG. Sergecross73 msg me 17:48, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete since subject fails WP:GNG. A lot of space is being wasted arguing on the basis of "other similar stuff already exists in Wikipedia". Which never helps. -The Gnome (talk) 17:39, 1 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
