A couple of years ago, we successfully cleaned up the proliferation of articles on individual Dream Theater songs, merging all but a few of them into their parent articles per WP:NSONGS. See, e.g., [1] [2]. In particular, several forks from the album Systematic Chaos were done away with, e.g. [3] [4], but the problem has started to return. Home_(Dream_Theater_single) and Forsaken (Dream Theater song) are essentially a recreates of Home_(Dream_Theater_song) and Forsaken_(song), which were redirected per [5] [6], and may qualify under WP:SPEEDY G4. Constant Motion (song) is a recreate of Constant Motion, n.b. [7], and obviously qualifies under G4. In the Presence of Enemies is a little different; it escaped the dragnet last time by the sneaky strategy of not yet existing, but I nevertheless submit that it is in just the same boat now as the other Systematic Chaos songs were then: it fails NSONGS. Despite minor differences in posture as these four come to AfD, I propose that they should be given the same treatment: D&R to the parent albums Scenes from a Memory (Home) and Systematic Chaos (the rest). - Simon Dodd { U· T· C· WP:LAW } 18:11, 6 March 2011 (UTC) reply
