One of the Boys (Katy Perry Song)[edit]

No sources stating this will be released as a single, even tho "Katy said" she plans to make a video. Cannot find any internet confirmation of a release. A #86 chart peak in Australia does not necessarily make this notable, particularly since many songs chart these days (usually for a week) from unsolicited digital sales. Suggest merging to the album. - eo (talk) 10:57, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep If we merge and delete, a new page will just have to be made when it is released in North America. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.177.86.245 (talk) 13:48, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with One of the Boys (Katy Perry album), article fails WP:MUSIC for no independent confirmation from reliable sources. Also violates WP:CRYSTAL as it the single's release is not almost certain to happen.— Preceding unsigned comment added by ReviewDude (talk • contribs)
Boldly merge as this particular song does not pass WP:NSONGS- but don't make an AfD if you don't intend to delete.--Boffob (talk) 14:32, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Merge: technically it is the 3rd single in Australia. it has been added to radio and now sits just outside the top 50 on iTunes so it will most likely enter top 50 on the ARIA charts sometime soon. So either way merge now, and re-open it when it finally enters the top 50 on the ARIA Singles Chart. I think the start of the article should be rephrased. So far Australia where the single will be released.Getluv (talk) 18:57, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: the song has (or is?) charted in an important chart like the Australian one. Further, sooner or later, someone will create this article entry, when the song be officially released as a single. Goddess (talk) 08:38, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - the point is that there is no source anywhere stating that this will be the third single, even in Australia. "Minimal play in the U.S." (according to the article) comes from what source? Also, having to recreate it later is not an automatic excuse to keep - that happens to a lot of song articles when people jump the gun. - eo (talk) 13:53, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
