As the original creator of this article, I disagree with this deletion. A demo is still a part of the band's music, and is very reliable. These people of wikipedia think that a page does not matter. This page does have true facts, it's very reliable, and the demo was very successful. So I see no reason why to delete this. -Tnd900
Redirect and Merge to the following release, or the remastered release. I support a demo whenever possible, I've searched for this and found only extremely brief mentions, and none in a "particularly" reliable source.. - Theornamentalist (talk) 23:05, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I would like to add that there appear to be several books written specifically on Megadeth, although non are viewable through Google books, so there could potentially be some information to make this article viable. - Theornamentalist (talk) 23:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

The AFD notice was removed on October the 29th, I just now putting it back. In the infobox, it links to a review by someone notable enough to have their own Wikipedia article. Doesn't that count as coverage? Also, did any of the songs make it to a hit album, and did any of them ever chart well afterward? Dream Focus 06:10, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to pose another idea here. Would it be acceptable to merge this into another Megadeth album (for example, 'Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good!', since the original 3 songs were rereleased on the 2002 remaster of that album), or if there are other Megadeth demos, could a general page for all of them be done, similar to the page for Metallica's demos? --L1A1 FAL (talk) 22:26, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
