Robot (song)

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

An unremarkable single. Almost entirely self-sourced by the publisher/producer. Not on any charts or anything. Fails a number of inclusion filters. Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 05:04, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Well, that's what I was afraid to happen. I was supposed to made the article one month ago when the articles about Robot popped but this time I waited to be released. About the charts, since it was released today obviously didn't charted yet, but Oricon Daily is out in a few hours so this is not a problem. Japanese releases, specially singles, are a little hard to find sources besides their websites and all, that's why some of my artices of Japanese singles lacks this. I'll try to find some proper sources of the single. Rafatisd (talk) 05:25, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I see they are under Warner Music Japan . Not to mention all of their indie work. That makes them notable under WP:BAND PortlandOregon97217. I think Sue is suffering from a case of "If I haven't heard of it then it isn't notable" (talk) 09:53, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep A remarkable single. Not not on any charts or anything. Puhlenty of sources in the Japanese language. Passes WP:GNG easily. Bonkers The Clown (Nonsensical Babble) 06:16, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep Another truly incompetent nomination. At the very least with a single released the same day, check the categories, in this case Category:CN Blue songs. Not to mention Japanese and Korean sources. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:40, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Hate to bring out my crystal ball, but keeping tally of the Oricon daily singles chart, it's all but confirmed that "Robot" will debut at number two on the weekly singles chart. Even ignoring that, these sources go into detail about the content of all three versions of the physical CD, this source announces the single and provides critical commentary of one of the single covers, this source talks about the first-day sales of the single and the genre of the song, and this source talks about all three tracks (sans the instrumental, of course), as well as the music video preview posted on Warner Music Japan's YouTube channel and when the full music video will be uploaded. Notability is definitely there. — ξ ^xplicit 02:11, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
