Article fails WP:MUSIC as it is a album that did not chart. Prod declined with the reasoning that the artist's article is too long to contain this information. —BradV 05:38, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge You cannot delete verifiable non-trivia information. If the article is too long, one may split the page Albums and singles of Cosima De Vito. Twri (talk) 06:09, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Nominator's rationale is mistaken- WP:MUSIC does not state that an album needs to have charted to be notable. Rather, it states that albums by notable musicians may be notable. The musician in this case, Cosima De Vito, is notable. Considering one of the singles on this album charted, the album has been out for over 1 year, and the artist has other charting albums, I think we can safely assume this album is notable. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 06:40, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Charting is just one of the possible criteria it can meet. But the guideline says it only needs to meet one point in the entire 7-8 criterion set. Not charting in its own isn't a valid reason for deletion. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:02, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Actually, keep in mind that the laundry list of criteria in WP:MUSIC refer only to bands and musicians. Here, we're talking about an album. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 05:27, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, verifiable article on an album released by a clearly notable artist. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 11:07, 30 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]
• Keep : "if the musician that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles" per WP:NALBUMS. WWGB (talk) 13:04, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep for the same reason I declined this {{prod}} request. Notable artist=notable album, and the artist article is too long for the recordings to be merged with the parent article. – iridescent 14:58, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
