Non notable song that has yet to be released. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSONG. Note that another user attempted to bring this to AfD but didn't complete the process. I also vote for deletion as (co-)nom. Ravendrop 07:09, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect to Morning Musume and preserve the page history. The relevant criterion from WP:NSONG will likely be "Songs that have been ranked on national or significant music charts." However, the song has yet to be released, so it can't have charted yet. Based on that and the relative scarcity of coverage in reliable sources, the song does not warrant its own article yet. If the song were (to be) appearing on an album, I would say to redirect to the album title; without an album, I say to redirect to the artist's article. Of course, if/when the song charts in Japan, the article can be spun back up. —C.Fred (talk) 07:21, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This single will chart in one month in Japan, like did the previous 44 ones from this band in the top 6 of oricon charts (see Morning_Musume_discography#Singles ; the only non-top 6 is from a spin-off unit that shouldn't even be listed there). Note from a foreign wikipedia user who just edited the article (infobox and official profiles of the single). 10:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.226.233.102 (talk • contribs)

- Redirect to Morning Musume. Claiming that the single will chart is WP:CRYSTAL. This article can be recreated from the edit history after it is actually released, in the event that it does chart and/or become notable in some way. Currently fails WP:NALBUMS. —SW— comment 23:56, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. The article was moved today to "Maji Desu ka Ska!" That's part of my rationale for why it's premature to have an article for the song: the title hasn't been finalized yet. —C.Fred (talk) 21:23, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- It has been finalized ; it's : "まじですかスカ!" (in Japanese). The transcription is a matter of convention. L. 21:08, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
