Non-notable song, only primary sources cited and I cannot find any (in-depth) secondary ones. Giraffer ^{(talk·contribs)} 20:37, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, this seems in-depth about the song, though I'm not sure its reliable. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:43, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It appears to be a blog. Giraffer ^{(talk·contribs)} 21:27, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I realize there are no sources in the article, but this is a Division I college football program and we typically keep fight songs for schools of that size. It's near-certain that off-line sources exist for this song especially based on its age. Since the aritcle was created just today, it's reasonable to give this some more time to be built.--Paul McDonald (talk) 21:39, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- update Did a quick search on Google scholar and Google books, founds some references and added them.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:51, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Idaho State Bengals. Not sure there is enough here for an independent page, but it deserves a mention in the main athletic article. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 00:41, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to either Idaho State University or Idaho State Bengals as an ATD. The information can be merged later and a search demonstrated there is a reliable source to make the information verifiable. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 02:11, 29 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]

Keep or merge based on the addition of new sources. There won't be a lot about a school song, but I'm satisfied with the new additions. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 19:24, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep The other Colleges in Idaho have their songs in the same category; maybe with more references, but about the same size. Seems reasonable to keep. - Mjquinn_id (talk) 19:02, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AfD is about consensus building regarding policy, not by gut reactions. Especially in comparing to other articles, see WP:WHATABOUTX. Ifnord (talk) 01:52, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Idaho State Bengals will keep content; if it truly requires (and meets criteria) for a standalone article it can be moved later. Ifnord (talk) 01:52, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge - Keep or merge, but do not delete this useful search term. --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:25, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per User:Paulmcdonald. Certainly enough reliable sources to justify its own article. Frank Anchor^Talk 13:37, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Idaho State Bengals, if I were searching for this I would rather find it there than in its own article. Caleb Stanford (talk) 22:17, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Just about a consensus to merge, but there has been some additional new sources also added.

Merge to Idaho State Bengals. I looked through the sources and it doesn't seem notable enough for it's own article. It's mentioned in passing, but not the subject of any of them. Plus, as said above, it makes more sense and is easier to find as a sub-section of the Bengals page. -- Bob drobbs (talk) 23:26, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Idaho State Bengals, It shouldn't get its own article, but shouldn't get deleted. Wp9097 (talk) 23:55, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Idaho State Bengals per the above comments. Waddles 🗩 🖉 22:19, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Idaho State Bengals, per above comments, I agree that this should be included in it's own section in the teams page. Spf121188 (talk) 16:28, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
