Delete - no evidence of notability, though if someone knows enough Japanese to find significant news coverage I'll happily change my 'vote'. Sionk (talk) 23:30, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per its position on the Oricon charts. St Anselm (talk) 03:05, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Whilst charting on a recognised chart may lead to notability, charting is specifically not mentioned in WP:NSONG. The problem with this article is that it needed tagging for not having references (with a notability tag, if the editor thought appropriate). AfD is a pretty heavy resolution when at least 50% of the entries in Category:Stub-Class song articles are less notable and yet half a dozen entries for this artist get listed for AfD.--Richhoncho (talk) 11:20, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with your point that new editors should be given a chance to improve their articles but, for example, Freak (Meg song) has been tagged since October 2011 without any improvement. Meg's songs are already listed in her own article, which is probably the best place for them. Sionk (talk) 16:55, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete - A chart position is not in itself a reason for keeping. Per WP:NSONGS, "notability aside, a separate article on a song is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article". ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 12:10, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not seeing any in-depth third-party coverage (or any references at all) to demonstrate how the WP:NSONGS notability guidelines are satisfied here. --DAJF (talk) 23:46, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
