Speedy delete on a stub with this many references edit

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (your reason here) An album by Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics isn't notable? Seriously?? In ictu oculi (talk) 16:28, 18 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

I agree that this does not meet any speedy deletion criteria, but you should realize that Notability is not inherited. An album must meet both general and project specific notability requirements for a standalone article, not just because a notable artist recorded it. It would be particularly helpful to readers to incorporate some of that text within the sources into the article itself, then these concerns would not come up. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 17:04, 18 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
I really don't think any experienced editor will appreciate a sentence which starts with "you should realize that.." This article is obviously notable and "inherit" doesn't come in to it, as sources demonstrate. If you look at the contribs history of the editor on a spree of speedies you'll see it's a new User.
