• Keep What is WP:CRYSTAL about it?? It has a release date, everything is sourced, and info is coming up everyday. Lady Gaga's Born This Way was created literally months and months before it was even released or any singles released. I have a problem with the article being deleted, if you want to re-direct it, then that can be discussed, but I don't see why it should be deleted, it will only have to be re-created again. I just don't see the point in it being deleted, as with many articles. Calvin • ^NaNaNaC'mon! 20:08, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
• It is WP:CRYSTAL because it has not been named yet. Nicholas (talk) 20:28, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

  Coldplay's fifth album wasn't named, but it had an article for months. Just because an album doesn't have a name, doesn't mean there isn't enough info to support it, because there is. Calvin • ^NaNaNaC'mon! 20:29, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

• Delete Until it have a real name or it became as relevant as the Coldplay's fifth album. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 20:08, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

I created the article today. I doubt Coldplay's fifth album was exactly full of info hours after being created. It's only two months until Rihanna's album si released, it's not long at all. Calvin • ^NaNaNaC'mon! 20:14, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Well, if you create it today, knowing that there are guidelines to not create articles, you decided to create it. Calvin this is not Fanapedia. The content here can be merged into a Rihanna's relevant section, and the article deleted because it is almost a "TBA (Rihanna album)" title. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 20:18, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

It has a release date. If you want to talk about "Fanpedia", then you should look at Gaga articles. It's double standards. I don't think a delete is necessary, it's only going to have to be re-created in a matter of weeks. and IP users will create the page over and over with no content, at least my creation has relevant background info and properly formatted references. A re-direct is fine. Calvin • ^NaNaNaC'mon! 20:25, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

If "IP editors ... start to create it ... again" it can be semi-protected and salted. You have given no reason for keep the title again, and again, it can be merged into Rihanna bio with no problem.

Oh, and Gaga articles are irrelevant here. They, at least, are more encyclopedic than "The [Loud era] continues with more new music to add to [yo]ur collection'" Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 20:35, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

I can tell you don't like Rihanna, which is probably the reason why you want this article deleted. If it was Gaga's, you would probably fight to keep it. Calvin • ^NaNaNaC'mon! 20:40, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Creating BLP violations with my persona? Inform yourself before you talk. I don't like Rihanna but neither Gaga. I am in favour of the polices and guidelines, if you cannot with them this is not your place. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 21:32, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

• Keep. The album has a release date. The name doesn't even matter. Kelly Rowland's album hadn't name for maybe one or two years. So? There is a background info also. And btw I support Calvin's comment about the freak called Gaga. Her article would be kept even if it was fictive !!! — Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 20:55, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Well Tomica, Born This Way was created from an incubator page not with a) a better background, 14 reliable sources and yes a name. Kelly Rowland's one talks by itself, and yes it was incubated. Even Coldplay's was notable at the beginning. If you want to play the Wikilawyer find a better client. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it!

• Delete – Not sufficient information, no name and should be merged to Loud (Rihanna album) and Rihanna. Yes, other stuff does exist but that is a weak argument to use in deletion discussions. —WP:PENGUIN · ^{[ TALK ]} 21:07, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

• Incubate Nothing else to add. — Status {^talk_contribs  21:49, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

• Keep. I agree with Calvin. The album already has a release date, the first single has already come out and has already hit number 11 on iTunes in the US and the album's release is only Two MONTHS away. When Rihanna first told her fans via Twitter that the debut single from the album would be We Found Love, she said it would premiere in October and quickly changed that to the 22nd September - three weeks earlier than initially planned. How do we know she isn't going to announce the name of the album in the next radio or TV interview promoting We Found Love??? She is soo unpredictable and like Calvin said, new information is coming out daily. This article DEFINITELY needs to be kept. I think it would be foolish to even merge the page (as someone has already unfortuneately done with (WFL). Muthamonster (talk) 22:01, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
