This album's release date is not yet known. There's only two confirmed tracks so far. I originally proposed deletion, but the tag was removed because the remover didn't see anything in WP:CRYSTAL that disallows referenced albums. --Baby G. (talk to me) 15:09, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Against deletion - This article is being hyped like crazy everyday new references have come up and this article can grow as time and new information comes up.Xx1994xx (talk)

• Stongly Against deletion - this is a important article and to delete this would be depriving people of information it is well sourced and we know it will be released sooner or later henry (talk) 22:28, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - The album has been confirmed by MANY sources and more information is being released every day. SE KinG (talk) 03:05, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agaimst deltion - I was the one who found up to 22 refences for the article but due to redundancy they were all removed but 5 which I can not argue but this article should not at all be deleted.Xx1994xx (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 21:28, 3 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]
  • Please do not !vote twice in an AfD. Thank you, MuZemike (talk) 17:18, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - People on this site are too quick to delete pages. The same thing happened when I created a page for John Legend's Evolver. It was deleted twice, but guess what? It's there now! 14:28, 3 November 2008 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cubfan789 (talk • contribs) 14:28, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Of course it's here now—the album's been released, it's charted internationally, and been reviewed in numerous important periodicals. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 15:25, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep because the article is referenced and the subject is notable. Daniil Maslyuk (talk) 16:51, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:46, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep — Has the sources to meet the WP:GNG. MuZemike (talk) 17:22, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete — per WP:MUSIC#Albums: albums need "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". I would argue that the coverage is neither significant (all short blurbs, or interviews with Lil Wayne where the album is not the primary focus) nor independent of the subject: it's all taken from interviews with Lil Wayne, or comments he's made onstage—primary sources. Nothing he's said is verifiable—indeed, there's a fair amount of contradiction: the album's going to be a reissue with bonus tracks; no, it's going to be all new songs. Crystal ballism and fails notability. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 19:11, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
