Unnotable song. At best a "one hit" wonder. This single was merged per consensus to the main Teletubbies article in November, but Colonel Warden decided to undo the merge without discussion, even violating WP:COPYRIGHT by adding a link to an illegal version of the video on YouTube.Apparently he has decided to help the DisneyVandal by now doing his edits for him. There is nothing else to say about this song beyond what is already here, which is already in the main Teletubbies article. Since the merge has been undone, now bringing here for full deletion with protected redirect. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 15:37, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

- Question: Can you provide a pointer to the merge discussion?—Kww(talk) 16:22, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- It was initially tagged in September[1]. No objections were raised and the merge took place November 10. Again, no objections were raised. CW only reverted the merge because he saw that I did it while reading my AIV report on another of Bambifan101's socks (by his own admission).[2]. This is silent consensus, as none of the main editors of either article raised any objections during the two months of tagging nor in the nearly two months since it was merged. There was also merge discussion started on at Talk:Teletubbies, but it was lost in the clean up of the sockpuppeters insanity there. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 16:39, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep It was No 1 in the charts for two weeks, that's notability enough. Discussions Re:merges should happen elsewhere. Artw (talk) 18:28, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

- Keep No.1 single, clearly passes WP:MUSIC#Songs. Black Kite 18:51, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep #1 single in the UK = definite notability. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:07, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep The whole thing is properly referenced and WP:MUSIC says charting hits (especially number #1's) are notable. Additionally, this one was shortlisted for another award. And it managed to re-enter the charts with its rereleases. - Mgm|(talk) 22:53, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep No brainer #1 hit. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 05:19, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- Merge: I can't endorse the edit-warring, because this article does meet minimum standards, and is clearly warrants at least a redirect. Still, it's one paragraph long, and I don't see any reason to believe it will or should grow larger. Permastubs should be redirected to parent articles.—Kww(talk) 13:44, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- My work on the article has been interrupted by your unhelpful personal attack which required a considered response. My plans for it include commentary on the single's reputation for being outstandingly bad - it seems to regularly show up in polls for this. One might go on to detail its success in differing countries, as the Teletubbies have a significant international audience - USA, China, etc. Then there's its contention for status as the No 1 Christmas single and the scandal of the BBC's reporting it as winning when it actually lost to the Spice Girls. And this is just what I got from perusing Google. I expect a better search of UK newspapers will generate lots more sources to write from. And then there's the music press which is not online - Smash Hits or whatever. There's no reason why this couldn't be a FA. Colonel Warden (talk) 14:29, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- A considered and reasoned view that an editor using deceitful edit summaries is editing disruptively, brought forth in an appropriate forum such as ANI, cannot reasonably be considered a personal attack.—Kww(talk) 14:36, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep or merge I know this is not a helpful !vote, but even if this article can never be improved to GA level (hence my merge vote), this song is undenyably notable (hence my keep !vote) and if consensus is against a merger, even a well-meaning mergist or deletionist has to accept this. – sgeureka t•c 14:06, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep The nominator seems to want to enforce a merge rather than deletion. This is not the correct place for this. Colonel Warden (talk) 14:29, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
