• Keep. I've heard this song before. BuickCenturyDriver 02:45, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • This doesn't address a single thing the nominator brought up. --Wafulz 03:17, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Green Day song). --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 03:11, 11 January 2007 (UTC) Wafultz makes a good point below - change to Delete --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 03:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Redirect The article already exists under it's proper name. See: Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Green Day song).Ganfon 03:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Looking back on Wafulz's point, I too will have to side with deleting' this article.Ganfon 17:34, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect, same as above. --Wafulz 03:17, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, delete as an unlikely search term. Nobody is going to search up "I walk Alone (song)" (especially with the brackets and the capitalization). --Wafulz 03:18, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Unlikely search term, the name isn't actually used anywhere. And what's with the "mistakenly marked explicit" part? "Fucked" is enough to get the warning. -Amarkov ^blah_edits 03:47, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong delete Nobody will ever search for this. Ever. Obviously, there's also nothing to merge into the BoBD article. -- Kicking222 03:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Delete per WP:CSD, specifically Redirect criteria 3. This is about as unlikely a search term for Boulevard of Broken Dreams as can exist. Cheers, Lankybugger 04:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. JuJube 07:03, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect. Umm, yes, people will search for this. Considering that "I walk alone" is repeated as the chorus of the song many times, it is more than likely that people will think that is the name of this song. I've gone ahead and boldly redirected to the existing article. --- RockMFR 08:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'd just like to point out that I doubt people will be looking for I walk Alone (song) specifically. I imagine that they would either capitalize the first letter in each word or just capitalize the I in the title. It's pretty unlikely they'll not capitalize walk but then do it for Alone. So while I don't object to a redirect for "I walk alone" or "I Walk Alone" (as both would be common search terms), this random capitalization is NOT common.

  • Comment Which is where this discussion could get catapulted over to WP:RFD if it doesn't satisfy WP:CSD#R3! Bubba HoTep 14:54, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect as already rightly done by RockMFR. In my travels sorting album and song articles for WP:ALBUM, I would have done so anyway. Bubba HoTep 12:14, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, no one would search for anything with "(song)" after it. Maybe a topnote at I Walk Alone, which is about a 1948 film. Recury 17:16, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: no use as a separate article and useless as a redirect --Pak21 17:31, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: this is just a article full of junk - useless. Jordanhatch 20:57, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Unlikely redirect. Pointless article. Maxamegalon2000 06:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Unnecessary as an article or redirect. —ShadowHalo 04:18, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
