Notability is neither claimed nor established for this little-known compilation album. The two sources just provided show existence but make no claims in its support. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:34, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to The Soup Dragons, and by merge I mean add a note there re. the three ~~EPs~~singles that this compiles. There isn't much beyond that here. --Michig (talk) 16:50, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ Merge and delete

Alternatives to deletion

{{WP:NALBUMS}} states that if the page can be improved, this should be solved through regular editing, rather than deletion.

I checked the history for this article and note that use of other methods of dispute resolution such as listing on Wikipedia:Requests for comments for further input as required by {{WP:NALBUMS}}. or adding suitable tags was not used first.

It may be reasonable to merged the album into the artist's main article or discography article as per {{WP:NALBUMS}} which states "Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article, space permitting", but this may lead to the bands article page becoming cluttered.

Updated opinion: Having recheck The Soup Dragons article I note it has a basic Discography Section, which could have the information here merged with relative ease. So I have changed my vote. As the wikilink for the album Hang Ten! on The Soup Dragons would only redirect a user back to that same article, I would suggest once the infomation has been merged then the deletion could go ahead.

(nom) Merging does sound reasonable, yes. I don't personally think a track listing need be preserved for minor compilation albums, so it should cause little 'clutter'. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:20, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
