Article is an infobox and 3 sentences. Article contains 1 source. Article makes an unreferenced claim that the song won an award, but there are no corresponding charts or sales figures that one would expect from an award winning song. Nothing to show notability. CSD and PROD was denied. Kellymoat ( talk) 01:40, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- Keep - Kellymoat - Are we looking at the same article? The song has charted on multiple Billboard charts, and won a MTVU award, and there are sources present in the article that verify this. I just checked to verify this. I can understand why one would think such a short stub of an article maybe doesn't need to exist, but your specific reasoning is baffling to me. It's simply not true to say there are not sources that verify the charting and award, and the article is so short, I don't understand how this could have been an oversight for you.

- I am glad that people have gotten off their butts and started to write a proper article. But look at what it was before I started deletion procedures.
This is what it looked like 48 hours ago, the next edit was me attempting a CSD.

- Yeah, it wasn't there for your CSD and PROD nominations, but it was
there before you sent it AFD. (Your AFD nomination edit is the most recent edit to the article.) It appears you probably didn't check in between the PROD and sending it to AFD, which at least explains my questions about the disconnect between your nomination and the current article...

- A 27 minute difference in time between someone doubling the article size and my AFD. Certainly acceptable.

- But they
rejected your PROD and added the content in one single edit, an edit you must have been aware of in some capacity, or otherwise you wouldn't have written up an AFD at all. (It wouldn't have made sense to tag it for AFD while the PROD was active.) It also doesn't say much for
WP:BEFORE being followed out. But regardless of the order or the process of things, charting on major charts and winning awards from major television networks is certainly enough to meet our notability requirements, so I'm sticking with my keep !vote.

- The other scenario is -- my notification box said my edit was reverted, and I didn't bother to loo to see that the removal of PROD (the revert) also included more information.

- That didn't happen. If you look at the article history, you'll see that your edits weren't rolled back or undone, so it wouldn't have appeared in your notifications. When I declined your requests, I also tried to improve the article. This is an ill-advised nomination, and you're only digging yourself a deeper hole. The wise thing for you to do is admit that you made mistakes and attempt to learn from your errors.
- (Oh, and in case it's not obvious, I think we should keep the article, as it clearly meets WP:NSONG.) - Eureka Lott 01:42, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
