  keep. WP:BEFORE search found these sources:

  Complex

  Consequence

  B*llboard

  Pitchfork

  NME NO SIGCOV

  Rolling Stone

  All of them (not sure about Complex) are RELIABLE RSES, with some of them having SIGCOV of the song. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 00:10, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Per WP:NSONG, Coverage of a song in the context of an album review does not establish notability. If the only coverage of a song occurs in the context of reviews of the album on which it appears, that material should be contained in the album article and an independent article about the song should not be created. 3/6 of these sources are album reviews, NME has it as a passing mention, Consequence also has it as a passing mention (in the context that Earl performed on stage with him, one of the songs being Rusty) leaving the Complex source, which is not clear as a reliable source, and does not provide significant coverage. jolielover♥talk 05:16, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, pretty clear failure of WP:NSONG and/or WP:GNG. λ NegativeMP1 19:19, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

lols this seems to happen everytime I create an article.

I can't see why it has to be deleted instantly rather then being edited until it applys with conditions.

The discussion is about whether or not the song is notable. It is not notable. No amount of editing can make a subject "notable". λ NegativeMP1 22:16, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, Wikipedia isn't targeting you, it's just that there are quite a lot of guidelines and policies to adhere to. In terms of notability, the song does not meet the requirements (WP:NSONG). jolielover♥talk 03:12, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I thought it was pretty notable. What makes Rusty any less notable then songs such as Gone, Gone /Thank You or Tamale? both of which count as notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Booksandarticles (talk • contribs) 12:22, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Notability isn't derived from opinions, there's a guideline in place for songs (WP:NSONG) and a quick google search finds hardly any sources on this song, only passing mentions of it in general news about the album/live performances. The difference in the other examples you mentioned is that they do appear to have significant coverage. Tamale, for example, got quick a lot due to its provocative lyrics and music video. Gone, Gone / Thank You also has some notability to have a page due to it charting in a few countries and earning some certifications. jolielover♥talk 15:39, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
