- Move it as suggested to List of albums released in 2007. I think there is a use for the list in addition to a category, simply because the list breaks things down chronologically, which the category cannot do. Lankiveil (talk) 06:31, 30 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]
- Someone requested that it be 2007 in music, and it was done. –Pomte 13:18, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete information already in 2007 in music Doc Strange (talk) 15:37, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Here is the entire discussion regarding this article being split off of the 2007 in music article:
- Delete - information already exists in indiscriminate list as each individual album has nothing in common with any of the others other than it's release year, so we rightly have the category instead. A1octopus (talk) 22:43, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete redundant.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 13:32, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Whoever created this article simply copied n pasted the information from the readability of the article. I echo the sentiments of Lankiveil that there is a place for an article like this, that displays everything chronologically. --Pwnage8 (talk) 17:28, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment someone also deleted the "List of hits around the world" on the Music in 2007 page as people vandalized it to remove songs by rock acts and replace them with album tracks or upcoming singles by rap groups. Doc Strange (talk) 19:38, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and move to List of albums released in 2007 per Lankiveil. anemone]
│projectors 19:40, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply - Delete The chronological order of unrelated albums has no encyclopedic value whatsoever. (And ideally, if such a list is ever needed, it should be computer generated from the category and the release dates in the infoboxes.) -- Pepve (talk) 22:07, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I need this information for reference, but since you guys are thinking about deleting it, I'll have to make a copy. I'm sure I'm not the only human being in the world who could use this information. It's just a reference page. Don't delete it. --Donignacio (talk) 17:47, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep This information is useful, and presented in a far more user-friendly manner than the Category page. Suggesting a computer-generated list is absurd due to inherent (if small) discrepancies in markup on wikipedia pages, making screen-scraping difficult; and as far as I know, wikipedia doesn't provide an API for getting regularly formatted data. Frozendevil (talk) 17:55, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep It needs some formatting and citation work, but it's still useful and encyclopedic information, and a better way to organize this information than in a straight category page. I would support the above suggestions to Move this article to talk) 00:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep-Move Needs citing, but well organised. Should however be moved to talk) 03:29, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Guys, if you wanna remove it and keep the categories, do it, but can the categories be arranged by date?!! If you wanna move it to List of albums released in 2007, be my guest... But yes, its encyclopedic content to have a list of albums released in a certain year by date... Do what you want to do, but just dont erase it... Maged M. Mahfouz (talk) 05:19, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Return it to the original page It never should have been divided despite the big size of the page. Notes weren't really necessary in my opinion.--77.105.27.214 (talk) 01:04, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep or merge with 2007 in music retaining entire content. I came looking for this info, which is the best on the net, and found it was up for deletion - what the hell? Rebecca (talk) 03:58, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and rename "List of albums released in 2007." Lists and categories are not mutually exclusive. Both are important navigation aids. The list (or is it a table?) needs expansion, including more notes, and may well become so large that it needs splitting. Wikipedia incorporates an encyclopedia of released albums, with some threshold of notability required. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:13, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
