• Delete Didn't chart, no sources, band's own notability is thin. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 17:46, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

• Don't Delete Of course it didn't chart, it was a promotional free give-away. If you want a source check their deleted site on the internet archive - http://web.archive.org/web/20010411114456/www.dangerkittytheband.com/story/. The band's notability is "thin", yet these people are viewing the page, so clearly having their debut release (from 2 years prior to having any other recordings with a song that never appeared anywhere else) that led to the future of their career as a promoted recording artist is of viable use. Wikipedia's meant to be a massive archive or information and yet people want to delete useful content, it boggles the mind.

• Delete, per WP:NSONG. This is a borderline notable group, so it would be questionable whether their albums deserve articles or not. However our our notability guideline on this kind of release is clear: "Demos, mixtapes, bootlegs, promo-only, and unreleased albums are in general not notable; however, they may be notable if they have significant independent coverage in reliable sources." (emphasis added). This is admittedly promotional, and apparently was not really covered in secondary sources, so it seems a pretty clear delete. --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 05:38, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Steel Panther. This is certainly a plausible search term, and there is no reason not to include information on the song on the band's page. Cool3 (talk) 20:26, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
