Unreleased album with no indication of notability beyond album will be (when/if released) the first solo album by an established artist. Per WP:CRYSTAL, WP:NALBUM (there is some coverage in reliable sources, but doesn't appear to be significant coverage. (There's been some discussion at Talk:Wreckorder which may be of interest). No tracklisting, no firm release date. I believe the second paragraph (McCartney, vegetarianism, cookbooks) should be merged to Francis Healy, and the first paragraph (album itself) to Francis Healy same.

---TFOWR, you failed to mention that the album also features Paul McCartney, the most successful songwriter and musician in the history of popular music.--Froggo64 (talk) 11:11, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I believe the second paragraph (McCartney, vegetarianism, cookbooks)... Uh, no. Though I will concede I didn't say that McCartney is "the most successful songwriter and musician in the history of popular music". Sorry! TFOWRidle vapourings 11:18, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if we're going to be precise, no, you didn't. You mentioned his name (now in bold green), but seemed to leave out that he's on the album (which clearly makes it more noteworthy/significant).--Froggo64 (talk) 12:32, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: the usual proceedure for anyone participating in an AfD is to read the article, read the arguments in the AfD, and comment. There really was no need for me to repeat the article for the benefit of a hypothetical AfD participant who hadn't read the article (if there is such a person, I would encourage you to read it - it's a quick read).

- Not delete. I can see arguments either way for keep or merge, but wouldn't this be better discussed as a merger discussion? Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 12:31, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Possibly. My thinking was that the content here is mostly already in Francis Healy, but it might be worth doing a cross-reference during the AfD to see if there's anything to add to the main article. The key facts (album, McCartney) are already in the Fran Healy article. TFOWRidle vapourings of a mind diseased 16:07, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Apart from a mention that Healy is about to release a solo album and that it features McCartney, none of the content is in the main article. As the album is noteworthy/significant in it's own right (and if it is deleted, it will just appear again very soon), neither should the contents be merged with the main article. It's pretty straight forward. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Froggo64 (talk • contribs) 08:30, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
