Eight/OOIOO[edit]

I believe that under the albums guideline, this could have the soundtrack merged into the main OOIOO article and be deleted without loss of content. That article is short, and no indication is given that this album is notable on its own (a search for the album's name yields nothing on GNews and almost exclusively download links or entries in lists of what the band has produced). It does not appear to have charted in any way, or even generated English-language reviews. Tyrenon (talk) 03:13, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Now has allmusic review in article. Why is this article at Eight/OOIOO instead of something like OOIOO (album)? KRS release has nothing on the cd or packaging to suggest "Eight" has anything to do with the title (Where does soundtrack come into it? Reviews do not need to be in English.

Keep When creating the article, I used the name Eight/OOIOO from the main OOIOO page. After further research, it appears that "Eight" is the Japanese title, and "OOIOO" is the US title. Source:Amazon.com Maybe just a title change is required? If so, I am unsure how to do that. (Sorry for any improper etiquette, this is my first "Articles for deletion" submission.) kgarr (talk) 14:37, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I added references confirming that the album has a was titled "Eight" in Japan and retitled as a self-titled album in the US. As for the mentioning of the soundtrack, I am unaware of any relationship between this album and a soundtrack. kgarr (ARTICLE CREATOR) (talk) 14:28, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above, asserts notability quite nicely with added sources. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 21:29, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Rename because it's a subpage at the moment and I'm pretty sure there's a rule against that in the main article space. (The slash makes it a subpage.) Ought to be called Eight (OOIOO).—S Marshall ^Talk/_Cont 22:06, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There's nothing wrong with slashes in article titles. Nip/Tuck uses one, and it's clearly not a subpage of Nip. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 22:37, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think the problem is that the album is not titled "Eight/OOIOO," but rather the album has two different names. I think the title of the article should be changed to "Eight (OOIOO Album)", since that was the title at the original Japanese release. The US title, "OOIOO," could then be mentioned in the article. kgarr (ARTICLE CREATOR) (talk) 20:02, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
