3 CD Collector's Set (Rihanna album)
AfDs for this article:
Delete = This article was previously deleted at A Girl like Me (Rihanna album). Please read the speedy deletion discussion here. SplashScreen (talk) 20:06, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I re-created and think that the article should be kept, since its looking lot better since the last time when is deleted. Since the box charted there is nothing wrong in having it here on Wikipedia as a separate article. — ]

- Delete per nom. Just not enough independent coverage from reliable sources. It's mostly padded with info about the three albums that make up this set. Charting, in and of itself, does not make an album notable. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 00:55, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I'm not understanding the argument. The "background" section, in which you are referring to, consists of information about the release and what is contained within it. I know this is probably against WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, but for example, My Worlds: The Collection basically consists of the same thing; the only difference being it was more commercially successful. Also, thought it might be a good mention, the article isn't even complete yet. I guess now me and Tomica are pressed for time to complete it... — Statυs (talk) 02:43, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Exactly. The background section is the very reason why the article should be deleted; all of its constituent parts are already surmised in their respective articles. The same is said for the tracklisting section. Therefore, we're left with nothing of substance that isn't already included elsewhere. This article is an unnecessary ]
- Relistedto generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Keep Article is thorough and contains enough information on the independently released box-set. AND it charted. On these two facts alone, it deserves to stay. WikiUhOh (talk) 14:59, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- No, the article contains information on the three constituent albums. Where in this article is the information about the box set itself? SplashScreen (talk) 20:48, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Everyone here should have his/hers opinion right? So he is right if he thinks like she/he thinks. You don't have to go around and change peoples mind. — ]
- You're right. But this is a debate, where people air opposing points of view in the aim of establishing consensus. SplashScreen (talk) 22:28, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep Wikipedia is better with this article. Consider the purpose here, is to create an encyclopedia, not to delete anything possible. A sourced article on an release by a prominent performer. It actually has an independent reference for the collection, not counting the individual components. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:20, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete - The reasons for the independent notability and the information is simply a stretched-out compilation of text contained elsewhere. Absolutely no justification for the recreation of this correctly-deleted article. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 13:53, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It seems like a toss-up if referring to ]
- But this isn't a compilation album like ABBA Gold or Rocket Man: The Definitive Hits. It's a box set comprised of three separate albums that have pre-existing articles. There's nothing distinctly notable about this release to warrant a separate article. SplashScreen (talk) 17:11, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- First of all it charted. There is notability! Then, it was released to further promote Rated R when it was released back in 2009. So yeah, there is notability and of course that there are independent sources. Status already pointed a box set by Bieber which is compiled by the same structure as 3 CD Collector's Set. So yes there is notability, I don't see your big hard problem with the article. And it's C class, because me and Status hadn't got the chance to finish it, since somebody already nominated for AfD. — ]
- There is no Wikipedia policy stating "if it charts, it's notable". I also refer you again to WP:NOTINHERITED - there's nothing to suggest this item of merchandise is independently notable enough to warrant its own article. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 00:45, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong keep - Contains information not present on her articles, it charted separately as well. Merging it would mean loosing the value that this article created, so my vote is strong keep.--(CA)Giacobbe (talk) 20:08, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, merging would mean any relevant, sourced information would be saved. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 00:45, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Repackaging of three previously released CD's. Not independently notable. -Zanhe (talk) 00:04, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, salt Independent coverage is trivial, the article is not on a standalone album. Dahn (talk) 16:58, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete ]
- If you have nothing to contribute, why bother commenting? A simple "delete" or "keep" for that matter has no weight here. — Statυs (talk) 02:40, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Contains enough information and it charted separately. It's independently notable. ]
