The result was merge to Hayley Orrantia. Consensus is that a standalone article is not justified but that the content should be kept in some form. Just Chilling (talk) 10:41, 19 July 2019 (UTC)

Keep - Well written stub about an album written by an unquestionably notable artist. Can't knock the snot panda. Coffeeluvr613 (talk) 23:25, 5 July 2019 (UTC)Editor blocked indefinitely for socking. Richard3120 (talk) 21:57, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- It's not well-written - it has just three sentences of basic information and no assertion of notability, the only sources are online record stores, you haven't provided any evidence that it passes WP:NSONG, and the fact the artist is notable does not mean the song is automatically notable.

- Keep - After improving and adding to the article with secondary sources I think it is notable but still needs some improvement. Billiekhalidfan (talk) 15:17, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Billiekhalidfan: the only secondary source is the one from Broadway World. Three tweets from Ms. Orrantia's own Twitter account and two links to online record stores do not qualify as WP:RS, nor do they show how the song passes WP:NSONG. Richard3120 (talk) 17:12, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- Weak Delete (for now.) The re-write cited above has not improved it. And "Broadway World" is not a good secondary source. It is a user submitted site for registered members, per [1] Other sources are press releases and social media. The only thing that might be decent is "Pop Matters," but it is only one. If more are added later then it could merit a stand alone article. But as of now the proper place for this is within the artist's own wikipedia page. ShelbyMarion (talk) 12:29, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
- @ShelbyMarion: you meant Popculture rather than PopMatters, right? Richard3120 (talk) 12:53, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
- Oh, yes. A simple brain fade. Thank you for the correction. ShelbyMarion (talk) 13:15, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

- Merge to Hayley Orrantia. Her recording career is only sparsely covered in that article, and a brief summary of this release there is probably all that is justified. I did find a Billboard article about the lead song from ([2]), but there doesn't appear to be much coverage around of this release itself. --Michig (talk) 08:16, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
- Merge to Hayley Orrantia. The EP fails WP:NALBUM, and after some searching I haven't found any more reliable sources than Michig has. The singer is obviously notable, but it's unlikely that anything better will turn up regarding sources for this EP. Richard3120 (talk) 17:28, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
