List of songs by Nirvana[edit]

Delete - unsourced, duplicates Nirvana discography. There is no need for two lists of Nirvana songs. Otto4711 19:43, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Important Comment There is no other list! ZOUAVMAN LE ZOUAVE 10:24, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Otto. Useight 20:01, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
When you see duplicate articles, your first port of call should be Wikipedia:Duplicate articles, not AFD. Administrator tools are not required for dealing with such things. Uncle G 20:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  - No, you haven't. Wikipedia:Duplicate articles tells you how to discuss things with someone who disagrees, which does not involve AFD in any way. Uncle G 09:33, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and propose merge in the usual manner. This is more extensive list of singles than is on Nirvana discography, and its format is different. Nomination doesnt include a real reason why this article must be culled. John Vandenberg 09:46, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This is very different from the Nirvana discography, just as the List of songs by Kreator is different from the Kreator discography. There is no other list of Nirvana songs, or at least, I haven't seen any. If there is, I will change my vote. ZOUAVMAN LE ZOUAVE 14:42, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Contains no information that isn't already in the discography article or one of the album articles. Minimal additional infos given, meaning that this is essentially a duplication of Category:Nirvana songs.Malc82 20:00, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

UpdateIn a very similar case, Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_songs_by_Avril_Lavigne just ended in a Delete. Malc82 06:38, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Nirvana discography -- no need to delete. --Itub 13:45, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with discography. --Tone 21:35, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to the discography page. GassyGuy 10:53, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Question (Honest question, no sarcasm) How would you want to merge these two articles? The discography already has critical lenght, uses a completely different format and contains most of the info, with the remains being in the album articles. Malc82 16:11, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you check if the info si consistent, if not, add info to discography and then make a redirect. --Tone 17:24, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into Nirvana discography. List of songs by Nirvana is pointless as an article, especially since it doesn't include every song by Nirvana. --Leon Sword 21:59, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reply The list actually includes every song released on the official albums and boxed sets as well as the Outcesticide CD's. Apart from the improv's and end jams, there is no song missing on there. ZOUAVMAN LE ZOUAVE 10:26, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Make sure each item listed is included in Category:Nirvana songs. Allow content to be merged into the Nirvana discography (if it isn't already there), but I see no reason for this page to stand alone. -MrFizyx 17:23, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Nirvana discography - G 1 ggy ^Talk/_Contribs 07:37, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with discography. Jmlk 1 7 07:40, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and then proceed with the usual discussion about merging. - Penwhale | ^{Blast him / Follow his steps} 17:18, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Zouvaman. The discography is long enough, and is a discography; adding all the songs in would probably spoil the discography article. Ichibani 22:43, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
