Previously prod'ed, this song doesn't have any sources out there demonstrating its independent notability - aside from being a Metallica song from "Master of Puppets." BigHaz - Schreit mich an 10:27, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Merge to album article. Contains some useful information, but in the context of the entire album; thus that content belongs on the album's article. Needs references, though; the YouTube clip is a primary source and therefore not sufficient. Powers T 13:21, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, unless sources asserting notability are provided. J Milburn 16:19, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • delete Songs which lack independant sources about THEM should be redirected to the relevent albums, per wikipedia guidelines. With only a few exceptions, non-single tracks from albums usually lack the references around which to build an article, and this seems to clearly fit that mold. If enough independant source material can be provided, this may be keepable as an article. But not as it looks now. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 16:42, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to album Songs of notable artists which, by themselves, lack reliable sources don't necessarily have to be deleted. They can be redirected to the proper music album for reference, since people might search for them in Wikipedia or in other search engines. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 21:52, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
    • In response to your edit summary comment that the songs should've been mass-nominated: I considered doing that, but decided against this time round. There may well be a song or two in the batch which turns out to be notable, in which case a mass-AfD would've become a trainwreck and probably closed prematurely. If I do another album in this manner, I'll certainly consider a mass-AfD. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 23:12, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
