Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yoü and I
This is a question for all the people who say that this song fails , could you please explain WHY you think it fails the policy.  Some people have said that we should wait until the song has been released as a single.  I assume those folks are talking about Lady Gaga releasing it because it has already been released as a single by Haley Reinhart http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/you-i-american-idol-performance/id435831241.  Even if we treat the song as unreleased, the policy states ''"Unreleased material... are in general not notable; however, they may be notable if they have significant independent coverage in reliable sources."''  This song has been covered in articles in Billboard (magazine)|Billboard http://www.billboard.com/column/viralvideos/lady-gaga-unveils-new-rock-song-you-and-1004101195.story#/column/viralvideos/lady-gaga-unveils-new-rock-song-you-and-1004101195.story, Los Angeles Times http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/gossip/2010/07/lady-gaga-you-and-i-today-show-video.html, New York Post http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/popwrap/ny_hearts_lady_gaga_HLRlzkVTxTgR1hMV8abQFK, Entertainment Weekly http://music-mix.ew.com/2010/06/28/lady-gaga-new-song-you-and-i/, USA Today http://content.usatoday.com/communities/idolchatter/post/2011/05/haley-reinhart-covers-an-unreleased-lady-gaga-song/1 and 6 MTV articles.  (And those are just the articles that are specifically about the song, I didn't include ones that just mention it).  The policy goes on to state: ''"Notability aside, a separate article on a song is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article"''.  The current article on this song is approximately 660 words long.  So, if that's not a long enough article and that's not enough RS refs, could someone please state how long an article needs to be and just how many articles need to be written about a song, because the  policy page fails to address that. So, bottom line, I am stating that I believe this *does* pass  and I've laid out my reasoning.  If you believe that it does not pass , then I don't think it's sufficient to simply say so, I think you need to say WHY you think it doesn't pass
