Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of songwriter collaborations
The topic of "songwriter collaborations" is a notable one. This http://books.google.com/books?id=H7N3tPSny6AC&pg=PT10&dq#v=onepage&q&f=false book, for example, focuses entirely on seven songwriting teams. This ''Rolling Stone'' piece also http://books.google.com/books?id=nhh_bw2BlQoC&pg=RA1-PA143&dq#v=onepage&q&f=false discusses many of these teams at length. Another book contains a 66-page http://books.google.com/books?id=IcFBLtl7sq8C&pg=PR9&dq=%22songwriting+and+the+articulation+of+change%22&source=gbs_selected_pages&cad=3#v=onepage&q=%22songwriting%20and%20the%20articulation%20of%20change%22&f=false chapter on British songwriters, with much of it devoted to collaborations (e.g., John Carter (musician)|Carter/Ken Lewis (songwriter)|Lewis, Lennon–McCartney). ''Billboard'' magazine has this http://books.google.com/books?id=5QsEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA42#v=onepage&q&f=false article from 1995 on the "team-writing trend" in Nashville. This 1977 http://books.google.com/books?id=iUUEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PT23&dq=%22top%20songwriting%20teams%22&f=false column from the magazine ranks the songwriting teams with the most number-one hits. These books on the http://books.google.com/books?id=eED11UnCLY8C&pg=PA288&dq#v=onepage&q&f=false business of http://books.google.com/books?id=oIPCuYHOLi8C&pg=PA204&dq#v=onepage&q=rodgers%20hammerstein%20holland%20dozier%20holland%20lennon%20mccartney%20jam%20lewis&f=false songwriting address the process of collaborating (with notable examples) in detail. So, the topic satisfies  in my view. As to what the list's criteria should be, Clarityfiend's suggestion of "famous songwriting teams" works for me as a starting point. The Peach Pickers would seem to qualify (http://books.google.com/books?id=ScqFpB4lJg4C&dq=%22peach+pickers%22&q=%22peach+pickers%22#v=snippet&q=%22peach%20pickers%22&f=false ''Billboard'' and http://www.reuters.com/article/2010/08/14/us-nashville-idUSTRE67D0BW20100814 Reuters call them a hit songwriting trio). To use a request from the list's talk page, Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge would not qualify for inclusion here as I'm not seeing reliable sources identify them specifically as "songwriter collaborators
