Merger proposal
[edit]The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I propose merging Roly-Poly (T-ara song) into this article. Thee song article says almost nothing and is mostly a collection of track listings and chart placments, all of which can go in prose in the album article easily. There's also probably little that could be legitimately added to it to make the article better. The material would be better served being discussed in this article instead, to fill out the album article better. Most songs fail song notability requirements, and per WP:SONGS, most songs should not have standalone articles. Please share your comments. Shinyang-i (talk) 05:25, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
- Strong oppose. The song is notable. The article is not a stub and contains lots of useful information. The article is expandable. If you redirect it, you will prevent people from expanding it. You will deny Wikipedia the opportunity to grow. --Moscow Connection (talk) 13:36, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- As with all the other songs we've been discussing, the contents of the Roly-Poly and album articles are nearly identical. They clearly aren't notable independently of each other. WP:SONGS says in that case to merge the song into the album article. Shinyang-i (talk) 16:41, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- I am in disfavor of merging the articles solely because it would overcomplicate the navigation panels used to browse the group's discography. In order for someone to continue browsing fluidly through the group's singles, for example, there would have to be three panels (EPs, Korean singles, Japanese singles).
- Support. "Roly-Poly" was a very popular song so I'm sure it's notable, but both articles are very short and I doubt there's much to say about the album apart from "Roly-Poly". I think it's better to have one merged article with all the information together. Merging the article into one certainly doesn't prevent people from expanding anything.

- Oppose. The song is notable and both articles could be expanded. Donottroll (talk) 17:03, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, Donottroll Even though I proposed this, I'm rethinking it because Roly Poly was such a bit hit and there is stuff to actually say about it. The problem lies with the album article. Do you have ideas of content to add to it? It really has no notability other than being the album Roly Poly was on, does it? Was there any discussion of it, as an album, ever? Please share any ideas to improve the situation! :) Shinyang-i (talk) 18:43, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
