Does not meet WP:NALBUMS. Non-notable album by non-notable band. Softlavender (talk) 01:22, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - The album was released on a major record label - Interscope - and as such, I can't help but think there's sources out there. There's an AllMusic Review and a Melodic.net Review for starters. Christian Music.com also discusses the album a bit, and says that the single from the album, "Say", was featured on Fuse TV's "Oven Fresh" countdown, topping the program's chart at some point. I know that's not an official chart or anything, but an album having a song being prominently featured on a nationally televised network's program is noteworthy. It says they performed the song live on IMX as well. Sergecross73 msg me 02:41, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or merge to Sleeping at Last. The band is notable enough. There isn't much content here, only one or two sources available, and the 'Early Years' section on the band article is very brief, so much of this could be added there. The tracklisting would be probably lost by merging as we still don't seem to have come up with an agreed way of listing tracks within discographies, but merging would be better than deletion. --Michig (talk) 19:36, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, they don't have a discography article to merge to anyways. I tried to consult it for details during the album rewrite/expansion, and noticed it doesn't exist. Sergecross73 msg me 20:02, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article on the band contains a discography. --Michig (talk) 20:18, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, sorry, I thought you meant a discography article, not the section. Sergecross73 msg me 20:43, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - I've rewritten and expanded the article out of stub status since its nomination, using sources with a consensus for being reliable per discussions at WP:ALBUM/REVSIT. Sergecross73 msg me 19:24, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I think with the article improvements the subject now meets WP:NALBUMS. Softlavender (talk) 03:43, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Thank you for reconsidering. I don't blame you for the nomination, it really did take quite a bit of research to be able to flesh out any sort of narrative about the creation process, and no one had bothered to do it in the last 5+ years, so I can see your original mindset too. Sergecross73 msg me 12:21, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per Sergecross73's expansion. Subject appears to meet WP:NALBUMS.  Gongshow   talk 07:25, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Interscope is a major record lable and chose to release this album. Therefore, I'm convinced of its notability. SilverSurfingSerpent (talk) 16:16, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
