Zappa barely released singles

[edit]

Why should an artist such as Frank Zappa adhere to the single policy when wasn't an artist who relied on singles and many of the singles he released weren't even his most known songs. On top of that this song was one of his most played in concert and that makes it more notable. Also bands such as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin have articles for barely notable songs. The Beatles specifically have articles for all of their rarities and b-sides. Why should a band not known for relying on singles like The Beatles have b-side articles when this song which was very often played in concert by another artist not known for relying on singles, Frank Zappa be deleted? Seriously, all of the songs on Led Zeppelin's Coda, Pink Floyd's Soundtrack from the Film More, and all of The Beatles b-sides (such as If You've Got Trouble, I Call Your Name, and I'll Be Back) and most of their rarities have articles? The article for "If You've Got Trouble"'is so unnecessary that it talks about the other songs recording on the same day as it and the article itself mainly bashes it. From Film More "Party Sequence" and "Dramatic Theme" are not only extremely non notable but they're articles are bland stubs. At least this articles tells people things about the song worth reading. I think Advance Romance deserves one way more than many of those songs. --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 08:57, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Being played in concert doesn't make things notable. In-depth coverage by independent sources makes things notable. Notability is entirely based on sources. Stuartyeates (talk) 01:10, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
