Taboo VI: The Homecoming[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Per WP:NALBUMS - there is no evidence from reliable sources that these albums have notability independent of their creators. . ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 09:45, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages, all cassette albums by the same band with the same issues, for deletion for the reasons stated above:

Keep Taboo VI: The Homecoming: Here are some links from seemingly reliable sources that mention or comment on this single and put it in context. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5], that should show notability per WP:GNG. (Could somebody else include the best ones in the article?). Diego (talk) 18:14, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Clarify - In case it was not clear, my Keep vote extends only to Taboo VI: The Homecoming, which is the nominal article for the AfD. I'm not sure how these "bundle" nominations are expected to be decided with a single discussion; the evidence I found is relevant mainly to this article and I have no opinion formed on the others.

I haven't had enough time to do some real research so there isn't much weight behind this as a !vote, but should these be found unacceptable notable they should probably be merged to The Mountain Goats discography rather than deleted.--Yaksar (let's chat) 03:52, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly would agree with that as well, absolutely no content is going to be deleted here. But I can see the argument that some of these cassette-only releases may not be independently notable.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 04:02, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to The Mountain Goats discography. Adequate sources cover the material sufficiently to prove verifiability, but in the case of these cassette releases, coverage in the discography is appropriate. BusterD (talk) 13:57, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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

In that case, all these cassette articles should be merged to List of cassette releases by Mountain Goats, since the topic of cassette releases is notable (it has been covered by the sources I provided above). But I think the current structure of small articles linked by the Mountain Goats navbox is a better structure for the information (so IAR to improve Wikipedia).

Keep - Sufficient sourcing, the quote can be turned into prose. - Theornamentalist (talk) 00:29, 17 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Added another reference; I am unsure how one would merge this information into a list; with a professional rating, fully referenced, and going beyond saying that it exists, I would be perplexed if this were merged. - Theornamentalist (talk) 20:04, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Following Diego, I too would like to clarify that this is only for his first cassette; I think these AfD's need to be split. - Theornamentalist (talk) 12:08, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to either the discography article or a new article on the cassettes as suggested. The sourcing found is rather slim, mostly bordering on mentions of these specific subjects while discussing the band in general.--Yaksar (let's chat) 15:40, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with The Mountain Goats discography. Doctorhawkes (talk) 02:11, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with The Mountain Goats discography, the album on it's own has not been the subject of significant coverage outside of the sources that report it's existence. Mt king ^(edits) 03:36, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into the band's article has been the consensus whenever an album is not itself, or group of albums are not themselves, notable. Bearian (talk) 20:25, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge all of them into the discography. Verifiable content but apparently non-notable topics (I looked through the sources provided for each of them and tried searching for more but none of them seem to have enough rise above the WP:GNG threshold), so with an obvious merge target available that seems like the best option.
