This soundtrack article neither establishes its notability nor has a corresponding artist article. Recommendation: Speedy delete per A9. Fleet Command (talk) 05:18, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Clarification: Administrator Dlohcierekim has already rejected speedy deletion per A9 on the pretext of automatic inheritance of notability from Resident Evil. However, contrary to this assertion, WP:MUSIC does not mention that notability may be inherited from anything other than a composer or musician. Fleet Command (talk) 06:04, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep or Merge. I would argue that either Resident Evil or CAPCOM would be considered the artist here as far as WP:MUSIC is concerned - both of which scream notability - but FleetCommand makes a good point. Perhaps that policy should be reviewed to specifically mention situations like this one? As per notability - I think that because the music is heavily featured in reviews of these particular games, it lends some extra weight to an officially released soundtrack. I would not be opposed to this information simply being merged into the article about the game specifically. Addionne (talk) 19:00, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Objection: If that is so, Addionne, you have seven days to assert notability by providing citations. However, as for considering Resident Evil or CAPCOM as an artist, there is a void of policy support and much doubt of validity on my part. For the time being, the policy says that Resident Evil and CAPCOM may both be notable topics, but notability is not inherited. Fleet Command (talk) 20:16, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment With regards the artist: I couldn't find information on the ensemble/orchestra used; any of the multiple composers would be the next best bet for use with WP:MUSIC. It doesn't make sense to me to use Resident Evil or CAPCOM for this (the theme and publisher). If in doubt, use the general notability guideline and see what attention the press has given it.

- I think you are right. That's why I nominated it for deletion!
- We could just redirect to Suleputer if nothing turns up. 17:17, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
- The label-printing company? Is it allowed per WP:MUSIC? Fleet Command (talk) 06:22, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, it's a viable search term, and it's listed there, so I don't see why not. Marasmusine (talk) 19:02, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- But is it allowed per WP:MUSIC? No! It is not! WP:MUSIC says "In general, if the musician or ensemble that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia." Suleputer is neither musician nor ensemble. It is not even a company. It is a trademark of CAPCOM. CAPCOM itself is also not a musician or ensemble. Sorry, Marasmusine. Fleet Command (talk) 11:15, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- There's no policy that disallows the redirecting of an album name to its record label. WP:REDIRECT suggests redirecting ...topics which are described or listed within a wider article.. This album is listed in Suleptuter's discography. If such a redirect had been made in originally (instead of this content), you'd have a hard time arguing for its removal. Although let me make it clear that I'm not opposed to deletion, either. Marasmusine (talk) 12:13, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I concur. Although Redirect is pretty much same as Delete. But why redirect when Addionne's recommendation of merger is a valid one? One of the game articles (or a new article called Discography of Resident Evil) is the best alternative to deletion/redirection (which I hadn't though of until Addionne mentioned it). Fleet Command (talk) 12:59, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- It seems in the end I don't really mind where it ends up, as long as it remains reliably verified. Marasmusine (talk) 14:28, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I strongly agree. Fleet Command (talk) 17:13, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Why didn't you just put all of these in the same AfD? - Norse Am Legend (talk) 02:18, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry! I was not aware of its possibility at the time I escalated the issue to AfD. Maybe next time. Fleet Command (talk) 05:08, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, JForget 00:46, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a database for track listings. There are other websites which give listings for video game soundtracks, so I'm wondering whether we should really have numerous articles with just a listing and very little actual content. Perhaps we could combine all the Resident Evil soundtracks into one article, similar to Discography of the Ace Attorney series? --Super Shy Guy Bros.Not shy? 20:04, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
