Delete — The article does not credibly indicate the importance of the subject. "On rare occasions, a recording or album… merits an article of its own." This is not one of those rare occasions. —

Of course it's a !vote. I wouldn't have nominated had I not believed the article worthy of deletion. —

Northamerica1000, it's not unusual for nominators to make !votes.

Comment - See
WP:DISCUSSAFD, point number 9: "Nomination already implies that the nominator recommends deletion (unless indicated otherwise), and nominators should refrain from repeating this recommendation on a separate bulleted line."
The key phrase here is "…refrain from repeating…". Never once have I nominated and then repeated on a "separate bulleted line". I simply choose to bullet my nomination. —

Delete. No evidence of notability.

Suggest keep, for now Merge and redirect(see comment on timing of nom below) Actually, appearing in a national chart is evidence of notability (
WP:NSONG) though not in itself proof. However, in the absence of other evidence, merge/redirect to
Finn 5 fel! sounds the most reasonable solution here.

Keep for the time being. Whereas I agree with the nominator that there are too many articles that merely say 'song,' 'artist,' and 'chart position,' and little else, I find it hard to assume good faith in this nomination when probably 90% of song articles at Wikipedia are of similar "notability" which are not being nominated, yet this newly created article gets nominated before the proverbial ink is dry. Let's leave the article for the time being, put a notability tag on it and let the creator establish notability, some reviews perhaps? It would be good if the nomination was withdrawn at this stage. --

Mmm, yes, it was nominated apparently within 3 minutes of the page's being created. It would be kind to withdraw this nomination.

3 minutes? I knew it was less than 24 hours. Bearing mind you think nomination should be withdrawn, perhaps you'd like to change your text above from Merge redirect for the time being? In respect of comments about !vote above,
WP:AFD reads Remember that while AfD may look like a voting process, it does not operate like one. Justification and evidence for a response carries far more weight than the response itself. Thus, you should not attempt to structure the AfD process like a vote' in response to other comments above... Cheers. --

Comment: I've expanded it to include Swedish radio chart position and critical review comments, hopefully this helps towards it's notability.

Keep This band in particular has many single track articles, including
Solsken,
En sten vid en sjö i en skog/Tuffa tider (för en drömmare),
Juni, juli, augusti, and an extended play entitled
Gyllene Tider EP. To say that this article and these others listed qualify as 'encyclopedic' may infact be a stretch, however I would really only support an articles deletion after three minutes in the case of a
WP:SPEEDY. I also applaud
Mattg82 for his composure in relation to this nomination, and his futher improvements to the article during this discussion.
Stubbleboy 16:10, 15 January 2012 (UTC)reply
Keep After all the improvements I've made, I now feel confident enough to say that this should now be kept. The song is part of what was a massive album in Sweden, and therefore has received coverage in multiple reliable sources. The song also charted on both the Swedish Singles Chart and
Svensktoppen, which is a well know radio chart in Sweden.
I will improve the other articles on singles from the album and the album itself over the coming days.
