Unremarkable bit of commercial exploitation. References are not sufficient to establish notability. Could be redirected to Queen discography, but there is no mention of it there. TheLongTone (talk) 12:01, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

Comment Meets WP:NALBUM #2, [https://www.oricon.co.jp/prof/60447/products/1343873/1/ it ranked at 7th on Oricon]. I've also added the album to Queen discography, so it's a valid redirect target now. Jumpytoo Talk 21:31, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
:* Keep Meets WP:NALBUM #2, [https://www.oricon.co.jp/prof/60447/products/1343873/1/ it ranked at 7th on Oricon], and there is sufficient significant coverage that can be found on the Japanese Wikipedia article (examples [http://www.billboard-japan.com/d_news/detail/83692/2] [https://news.mynavi.jp/article/20200107-951331/] [https://hochi.news/articles/20200107-OHT1T50034.html]).

- Redirect to Queen discography#Compilation albums. No significant coverage in multiple reliable sources as required per WP:NALBUMS. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 22:52, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
Redirect to Queen discography#Compilation albums. This album gets closer to notability than the nominator implies. Reaching the top 10 in Japan certainly helps, and it got some American media coverage too (e.g. [https://www.loudersound.com/news/queen-announce-greatest-hits-in-japan-collection]). But otherwise it remains pretty obscure, unless anyone can come up with more reliable Japanese media coverage. (If it is entirely in Japanese, most of us here would be unable to search for it.) If that becomes available, the article can be revived from redirect status. DOOMSDAYER520 | TALK | CONTRIBS 23:52, 30 October 2020 (UTC)- Keep (changed vote) - I have changed my vote above thanks to the reliable Japanese sources found by Jumpytoo.
