Merge proposal

edit

Alice's Inferno into Forever Slave. Per WP:NALBUMS: All articles on albums, singles or other recordings must meet the basic criteria at the notability guidelines, with significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject...An album requires its own notability, and that notability is not inherited and requires independent evidence. That an album is an officially released recording by a notable musician or ensemble is not by itself reason for a standalone article. Conversely, an album does not need to be by a notable artist to require a standalone article if it meets the general notability guideline. Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article, space permitting.

I don't see this article meeting the guidelines, certainly not as it stands. I have informed the article's creator and the two editors who added notability tags. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 14:38, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

I agree that in the current state, without significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, the album's article doesn't prove notability and should be merged into this article. On the other hand, my attitude towards these kinds of things have changed a lot since 2008, so I'm fine either way. --Geniac (talk) 22:25, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
