Nothing of signficance is even claimed in this article about an album by Skinny Puppy. The band's article indicates they generally got little radio and video play in general. Wikipedia is not an albumn catalogue. rob 08:26, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Real album by notable band. android79 11:04, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
    • Reply: I'm open to being proven wrong. I would suggest on expanding why they are notable, perhaps at the top of the band's article. There is a *vast* amount about the band in the band's article and *many* other articles, all dedicated to the same people. 95% of it fan-devotion. Now, perhaps buried in it, is an explanation of why they are notable, and what success they've acheived. I tried my best to read through this monument by fans, but only picked up that they had little play on the radio and video on tv. Also, I ask why is it necessary to list all the songs for each album both here, and on the band's article? --rob 11:20, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • The band easily meets WP:MUSIC. Every other problem you state with the article(s) can be solved by editing, not deletion. android79 12:49, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
      • Reply: Well, I don't subscribe to the idea, that once the band's article gets in, every other related article get's in. Some bands are so famous and influential, that individual notable songs qualify, but we don't give every song for every "articled" band an article itself. Nor does every album deserve a song. In some cases, only the band itself deserves an article. Merely being "real" is not sufficient basis for an article. I actually would be fine if wikipedia did start cataloging all published musical albums, even obscure ones. But, that should become a formal policy, applied to all, not just some. --rob 12:59, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, real album. If the band is non-notable, bring them to Afd. Kappa 11:50, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
