This section is for people to comment on whether they believe this version of the article can be restored, overriding the AFD result of "redirect."Kww (talk) 13:17, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
OK, that leaves just me as the last editor that argued for redirect. I'll go on record as saying that I oppose restoring the article. Most single articles are basically an infobox, that same infobox restated in sentences, a chart box, and a sentence that basically says For the video, people sang and danced while lip-syncing the lyrics. This article isn't an exception. With the redundancy removed, 99.9% of single articles work best as being a part of the parent album.
That said, I told Kikkokalabud that if he did his part by writing an article that other editors would accept, I'd take him through the steps of restoring an article that had been removed through AFD. He did a good job of that, and, as you can see from the edit history, responded well when I ripped his first version apart. He fixed the problems without getting angry, and I think he learned a lot about how to write a well-sourced article. I'll leave a request with an admin to merge the histories and restore the article.Kww (talk) 23:21, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
