Gordy is notable for co-writing "You're What's Happening (In The World Today)," the B-Side of I Heard It Through the Grapevine by Marvin Gaye, Motown|Motown's biggest selling single up until that time. While surely the A-Side was primarily responsible for the single's success, it is significant given the overwhelming success of the single and the fact that it was a cover version of a single by Gladys Knight & the Pips released less than a year before.  In its own right, "You're What's Happening (In the World Today)" has appeared in numerous compilations, attesting to its popularity.http://www.allmusic.com/song/youre-whats-happening-in-the-world-today-mt0031004866 Another Marvin Gaye recording that he co-wrote, "The World is Rated X," has also appeared in several compilations.http://www.allmusic.com/song/the-world-is-rated-x-mt0002342009. Per  once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" it does not need to have ongoing coverage. The article has been on WP for almost nine years without anyone suggesting that it should be deleted
