- Keep if more information can be added - perhaps list which recordings were new, which were not (if any, I believe the Avenged Sevenfold one was not). Many of these artists are notable for being quite big yet still doing this project - normally only small bands do tribute discs. (The Elfoid (talk) 16:01, 8 May 2010 (UTC))[reply]
- I think if more information can be added, they will come from the Metal Hammer magazine. So it may be appropriate to merge Getcha Pull: A Tribute to Dimebag Darrell with the Metal Hammer's article.--200.139.78.207 (talk) 23:45, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:25, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply] - Keep: Notable artists, released by a notable publication. Merging to Dimebag, Pantera, or Metal Hammer are not appropriate without loss of information in this article. If information about other covermount Metal Hammer albums was available, and already extant in that article, I could support a merge. - BalthCat (talk) 06:20, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Notability is not inherited. This article received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject?--Cannibaloki 15:09, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not passing notability onto other artists in the compilation. As your own link says, notability CAN be inherited in the case of books, music and films. It is an officially released album, by a notable publisher, featuring notable artists. Additionally, in this case sourcing issues are not justification for deletion. As I said, a merge to Metal Hammer, or to a Metal Hammer discography, would be perfectly acceptable were there other information to go with it. As it is, a merge into band articles would involve information attrition and redundancy. - BalthCat (talk) 16:28, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, but this does not reply to my question. ;) Cannibaloki 18:19, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I didn't intend to. RS guarantees are not necessary at this point. It's not BLP. Pointing a finger at one person who isn't invested in the topic and saying "RS or it dies!" is not appropriate. - BalthCat (talk) 02:55, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- And what is appropriate in this case? Merge unsourced information?--Cannibaloki 14:06, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- My suggestion is as above. In the absence of further information on Metal Hammer covermount albums, leave the article be. - BalthCat (talk) 14:37, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Wikipedia likes it if you can find third party sources. These may emerge in the coming year as going on past, similar ideas (most recently the Maiden Heaven album Kerrang put together) often end up as bonus tracks on actual album releases by the artists involved. Problem is, as a contemporary publication we won't find much on it right now because MH tends to be a commercial rival with those other publications. I'm sure some websites of semi-reliability could be dug up witha few google searches. I'll try and get around to it. (The Elfoid (talk) 23:17, 12 May 2010 (UTC))[reply]
