Sway....

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Not speedy-able because of the prominence of the band, but the recording itself is an unremarkable, unreleased track on an arguably good but not historical album. Nothing about the song sets it apart from any other song - not notable. Basalisk ^{inspect damage}⁄_berate 23:17, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The "Sway...." section used to exist on Start Something page itself. But I have created as a separate page because it was not suitable for the page. This was done because of Poiuytre (talk). This user was adding the "Sway...." section to the Start Something page. I have reverted before, but once again put it back up. — ıʇɐʞǝɐdʌɐиƭɐqǝoɟʎouɹqoɐʇ ✉ 00:32, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Start Something, the parent album. All mentions of the song appear to be passing/trivial/within articles on the album. It does not appear to meet WP:NSONGS or WP:GNG. Gongshow ^Talk 08:39, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - though the song has been discussed in detail in some of the references, the discussion can be a brief entry in the article for the album. --DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:51, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If it gets deleted can semi-protect the Start Something, or at least keep an eye on the page, so the "Sway...." section dose not get added to the Start Something page. Like I said before the only reason that I created it was because Poiuytre (talk) was keep adding it to the Start Something page. — ıʇɐʞǝɐdʌɐиƭɐqǝoɟʎouɹqoɐʇ [✉] 22:26, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE PAGE AND TRANSFER INFO TO START SOMETHING - I originally wrote what is still all of the content for the track "Sway" intending it to be part of the article "Start Something" - it's corresponding album. Whilst there is enough information to warrant the singles being given their own separate pages I do not think there is (and ever likely to be) enough information to warrant non-singles their own separate pages.

Bearing in mind that I am likely to write a short piece on each individual track (particularly those that are still popular like WSKTOW/THWR etc) which are likely to consist of two-four sentences each, we could end up with each damn track having to have it's own separate page - it's ludicrous.

Despite moving the information back, the user above me "User:Itakeadvantageofyourgoat" once again moved it back into a seperate page. Since then the user "58.164.11.154" has re-created the page for "I Don't Know" (a track only released in America specifically for radio) adding just a mere 2 extra bits of information (two US Billboard charts). Begs the question what the point in starting the article was. The only other articles that the IP address user has edited is the "Sway" article and the "Lostprophets template".

Also I should probably say now that the track is called "Sway" and not "Sway....". I have the CD in my hand right now: it is called "Sway".

And finally I also find it highly strange that in a day Itakeadvantageofyourgoat has gone from being 'Canadian' to being from 'Pontypridd', and gone from being 'Female' to being 'Male'. Again: how bizarre.

Anyway I would suggest the page gets deleted, the information gets moved back into the "Start Something" album page, and thus I can carry on with making improvements to the album page once again. "Itakeadvantageofyourgoat" has still not explained why information about non-album singles should not be allowed on album pages??? Particularly when many albums, including by the likes of The Beatles, Dire Straits etc have this Poiuytre (talk) 13:32, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the page for I Don't Know (Lostprophets song) which needs deleting as well. The information about the two chart positions should be mentioned in a few sentences on the Start Something page under a "Songs" heading (preferably with the original "Sway" content too) Poiuytre (talk) 13:49, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you can provide as much information as The Beatles album on the Start Something page it will look reasonable. But personally I do think it should be deleted completely as well. If you read the above talk, I explained why it has been created. Also Me changing location. I am born in Canada, but now live in Pontypridd. And also my gender, I just made a mistake while editing, and din't noticed. The song is called "Sway...." not "Sway". Look at the back cover more carefully It will have four dots next to it. I also own a copy on CD too. For those other people who don't own the CD have a look at this images: [1]. Poiuytre (talk), I don't know which version of the album you have. But the original UK versions have the four dots. — ıʇɐʞǝɐdʌɐиƭɐqǝoɟʎouɹqoɐʇ [✉] 22:47, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
