Talk:Late Night Tales: Hot Chip

@Aeternus:, this is essentially just track listing. I don't think this warrants its own article and should be merged into Late Night Tales according to WP:NALBUM Graywalls (talk) 07:36, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Graywalls: Late Night Tales: Hot Chip has been covered extensively by reliable sources, meeting the #1 criterion of WP:NALBUM. You can find that out by a quick google search. Also, article content does not determine notability. --Λeternus (talk) 08:24, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
"Notability aside, a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged into the artist's article or discography.". It's a sentence and a track list. I don't think stand alone article is warranted for all those albums. Anyone else?? Graywalls (talk) 11:47, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
Notability is what determines if a subject merits an article, not the article's current state. In this case, there are enough sources for the article to reach a GA quality. See WP:NEXIST ("Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article"), and WP:PAGEDECIDE ("an article may be a stub even though many sources exist, but simply have not been included yet. Such a short page is better expanded than merged into a larger page"). --Λeternus (talk) 14:08, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
This really should be developed in draft first until the reception section is beefed up sufficiently to meet WP:NALBUM. The reception needs to be more than just "It got good reviews" plus a ratings chart. It should go into detail on various critics and magazines' reactions, both good and bad.
