The result was delete and redirect to Fishmans. There is a consensus to delete this, but the usual MO with albums is that they get redirected to the parent band article, so I have done that. Black Kite (talk) 09:20, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
Since the PROD tag was removed with a poor rational (basically WP:OSE), I brought it here. Besides one review, the album lacks substantial coverage and is sourced by user-generated websites and user reviews. Fails WP:GNG. TheGracefulSlick ( talk) 07:24, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
I found another review of the album and have included a good deal more content in the article to show that discussion of the album has happened by outside sources, and that the album is musically significant (especially as the Fishmans' final album). I would also like to argue that the WP:OSE argument that I invoked in my removal or the PROD tag is valid in this case (after all, the OSE page states that OSE arguments can be "valid or invalid"). The OSE page also states that:
"In general, these deletion debates should focus mainly on the nominated article. In consideration of precedent and consistency, though, identifying articles of the same nature that have been established and continue to exist on Wikipedia may provide extremely important insight into the general concept of notability, levels of notability"
In light of this, I would like to cite two other independent articles that are directly relevant to the deletion debate of Uchu Nippon Setagaya: King Master George and Neo Yankees' Holiday. These articles are for two of the Fishans' earlier albums, meaning that they are certainly "of the same nature" as the Uchu Nippon Setagaya article. Neither of these two other articles cite any sources other than a Rateyourmusic link. In fact, KMG and NYH are generally thought to be significantly lesser in quality and significance than Uchu Nippon Setagaya, and much less has been written about them. Indeed, I was not able to find a single credible review of either, other than the user reviews found on websites like Rateyourmusic. On the Uchu Nippon Setagaya article, I have found and cited two credible reviews of the album. It is my understanding that two independent sources non-trivially covering a topic is enough to warrant a Wikipedia article. Furthermore, since these other two albums are part of the very same discography as Uchu Nippon Setagaya, I would argue that they represent valid examples for the invocation of the "Other Stuff Exists" argument. Since they both have their own independent articles with far fewer sources (and words) than the Uchu Nippon Setagaya article (and are less significant than Uchu Nippon Setagaya both aesthetically and in terms of the number of independent sources that cover them), I urge you to allow Uchu Nippon Setagaya to stay.
Thank you for your consideration of this case. -- FindingEllipsoids ( talk) 05:58, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
