ABC-DEF-GHI[edit]

It depends on notability here. Certain Sesame Street songs such as Bein' Green and C Is For Cookie are indeed notable since they both seem to have a lot of history and cultural references. This one does not seem like much. The only history or encyclopedic statements I can see on this page are "The song's lyrics were written by Jon Stone and Joe Raposo, with music by Raposo. It first appeared on the Sesame Street television series in 1969." and " "ABC-DEF-GHI" has appeared on at least 14 different Sesame Street-related albums since its debut, counting renditions by Big Bird and Elmo and appearances in medleys.". Everthing else is nothing but original research and the only "reference" on this page is not even secondary as it links to a video clip on Youtube (which is of course not an allowable source). The remaining above info I have mentioned is short enough that I don't think a standalone article is neccessary. It is also simply just the Alphabet Song in a different version and that it could easily be merged to some other Sesame Street song related article or to Big Bird (whom the song is sung by). The previous nomination in August 2008 was kept and yet there has been absolutely no improvement in the past 2 years. trainfan01 20:11, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Delete not individually notable, can't possibly be sourced. Redirect per below. What were they thinking at the last AFD?! Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 03:48, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of songs from Sesame Street per WP:NSONG. I haven't been able to find significant sources about this song. They might exist, but if so, they have not been easy to locate. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:12, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as suggested above. Gnews archive searches show nothing but a few trivial mentions, same in a book search. Web searches show lots of video clips and listings on lyrics and other databases, but no non-trivial WP:RS sources. Novaseminary (talk) 04:41, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
