The albums here were deleted via PROD. Each article has been recreated and merged into a single article but this does not make the albums any more notable. They're localized to the Florida area and have received no significant coverage (if any) in reliable sources. Sources provided include the radio station that releases these albums and a youtube video. Recordings by notable bands in acoustic versions or proceeds being donated to charity don't make the albums notable. These type of releases are not uncommon by local radio stations in the US, and most wouldn't seem to meet notability requirements.

Comment I had another source, but it was removed. Also, I don't see how a YouTube video showing an actual performance is considered an unreliable source. ----DanTD (talk) 02:22, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
YouTube is not a reliable source. Anyone can upload anything - including a band practice session in their garage. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:25, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Those weren't exactly a bunch of local kids in their parent's garage, nor was it filmed by some young burnout at a concert. ----DanTD (talk) 02:40, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That wasn't quite the case I was illustrating. I was demonstrating that YouTube is for all intents and purposes a self published or non audited source. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 04:31, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It would have if one of the sources I used wasn't deleted. I swear, the criteria for notability is rotten. ----DanTD (talk) 02:40, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - No coverage in reliable sources to support notability of this series of compilation CDs. Youtube, as user submitted content, has no editorial oversight in the content selection, and as such is not a reliable source for establishing notability. -- Whpq (talk) 15:29, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Redirect is acceptable. -- Whpq (talk) 11:39, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Having all albums on a single article page does not make them any more notable. There is not enough coverage from reliable sources to make the albums notable. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 15:37, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Better idea - Why not just redirect it to
    WSUN-FM? We can just rewrite the discography chapter and turn it into a whole section on the albums. ----DanTD (talk) 22:54, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply

So basically, just put this list of non-notable albums and place them elsewhere? A list of the albums is ok (and that's already there), but not just copying/pasting the track list of each album into another article. It will make the
WSUN-FM article more about the albums (which aren't notable by the way) than the station itself. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 17:08, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply

A redirect is not a merge. Issues with the growth of material at radio station's page would be an editting concern for that article, and the growth of its discography section would be an issue regardless of whether this article were redirected or deleted. -- Whpq (talk) 17:31, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    • Delete. No notability found within the references. Article consists of little information bar track listings.--Tuzapicabit (talk) 11:04, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
