This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Norway. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Norway|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Norway. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Europe.

In My Opinion

In My Opinion (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article currently only has one citation that being a non-independent WP:PRIMARYSOURCE to the album's record label Armada Music. [1]

I searched Google News to see if there were any WP:INDEPENDENT, reliable sources that have significant coverage on the album (Note that Google Books and Scholar brought up nothing when I searched for this album). And all I found were a few sources, all of which mention the album in passing while the main focus is on Nilsen himself: [2] [3] [4] [5][6]

With the complete lack of WP:Independent reliable sources with WP:SIGCOV, article fails WP:NMG and does not warrant an article, so it should be deleted or redirected to Nilsen's page instead. Cacophonic peace (talk) 03:36, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  The term is a bit ambiguous Geschichte (talk) 13:45, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Tbh, I'm surprised that it doesn't have a disam like (album), or that there's not a more notable subject with this name. In any case, {{R from album}} seems like a sensible AtD unless something else pops up. Nil🥝 02:19, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
