Talk:The Sims Original Video Game Soundtrack

Redirect

@Waldir: I redirected the article because it fails WP:VGSCOPE #15 and does not satisfy any of the notability requirements for WP:NALBUM except #5 which suggests to redirect the article in such cases. All of the sourced information is already preserved at The Sims (video game) and because track lists are prohibited per VGSCOPE, they should not be retained. Do you have any sources that demonstrate independent notability or may I redirect the article? Thank you TarkusAB^talk 00:47, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

Looks like someone else already did. I don't have the availability to dig up sources at the moment, but I'd expect the article to at least have some maintenance tag for a while, so that editors can have a chance to improve it, before the content is removed. Doesn't that sound reasonable? --Waldir (talk) 10:18, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Are you asking because you want a chance to improve it, or are you in the hopes that some other editor may take it upon themselves to do so? If you want to improve it, I suggest finding sources that demonstrate notability first (WP:NALBUM #1) and sharing here before restoring. I say this because I am concerned you may try to improve the article with trivial sources, and I don't want to waste your time, only to have the article redirected again. I don't think it's reasonable to bring back the article with maintenance tags in the hopes that someone else will come through and demonstrate notability. The article has seen little change in the eight years since it was created, and maintenance templates typically are an exercise in process only and sit around for years without sparking any change. It's just like putting the article on life support to die a slow death. TarkusAB^talk 11:49, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
