Similar discussions are underway for similar articles "VKTM" which Inna over at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/VKTM and "Sober (Inna song)" over at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sober (Inna song). Firstly, it's important to note that the article should not be classified as a WP:GA - it fails on on criteria 2 (verifiable - independent sources) and 2 (broad in coverage per Wikipedia:Good_article_criteria#The_six_good_article_criteria. GA status aside, when you exclude the YouTube and iTunes sources, it hasn't received extensive coverage and is really a WP:STUB. While there are some fleeting mentions from independent sources, there isn't enough to warrant growth beyond a stub. There are some guidelines on stubs at WP:NSONG which say "articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album". This falls into that category too. The song just isn't notable enough for its own article - coverage is limited and the skeleton of the article is made up of commercial or non-independent sources. ≫ (Lil-Unique1) -{ Talk }- 19:48, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Her song hasn't charted in any country (same as most of her recent songs). She's almost a one-hit wonder on the international stage, this song is hardly important enough at this point in time. If by some chance it becomes an international hit, we can revisit it.

  • Redirect to Alexandra Stan. In response to the above comment, per WP:NSONG, chart placement may be an indication of notability, but notability is best demonstrated through significant coverage in third-party, reliable sources. Whether or not Stan s a one-hit wonder or if this song somehow becomes an international hit is not relevant to this discussion. I do not think this song has enough coverage for a separate article, but it is a viable search term so a redirect may be a alternative to deletion. Aoba47 (talk) 05:07, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete With only one source, Celebmix, which I have some doubts regading its reability, it fails WP:NSONG as it doesn't provide significant coverage in third-party, reliable sources (one isn't enough). MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 13:09, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect - There is indeed not enough coverage in secondary sources, and I personally have my doubts about CelebMix too. I do think it is remarkable how CNF can write articles this good despite the lack of coverage.--NØ 16:19, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect as per the Aoba47. Dtt1Talk 16:46, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
