Virus Alert[edit]

Bringing this to AfD at the request of User:147.70.242.54, who cites the following reason: "Uncited article about a recording that was never released as a single. Not all recordings by notable artists are themselves notable. Several attempts to redirect it to the article for the album containing this song were reverted (the last be an admin stating in her edit note: 'revert: gather consensus first'). This clearly is not notable by itself and does not merit a standalone article. If it cannot be redirected, it must be deleted." As the person presenting the nomination, I will post my recommendation below. B.Wind (talk) 21:16, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Straight Outta Lynwood, the album containing the song. There is plenty of precedent to redirect to the album when there appears insufficient evidence of notability of a recording outside of the album. For this article to be kept, there needs to be sourcing and an indication of the song's notability on its own. B.Wind (talk) 21:20, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and close debate early. Bearian (talk) 20:08, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
