  • I'm a huge Kylie fan, but I'll still have to say delete. I would normally suggest a redirect to Kylie Minogue, but aside from there being no sources, the article appears to just be an unnecessary content fork ("...an attempt to track down the missing songs, demos, and published songs that we never got to hear"?). The creator also hasn't been on Wikipedia since the article was created in December 2008. Erpert (let's talk about it) 19:35, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

  • Keep - It is not unusual or improper to have an article about unreleased recordings by famous singers and/or musicians. The article should be improved and sources added. Kindzmarauli (talk) 19:53, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
  • If sources can actually be added, I have no problem with a keep. Erpert (let's talk about it) 21:35, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
  • Delete - As a devoted Kylie fan myself, I can safely say that this article is a hefty helping of original research at its finest, and will probably never rise above that. It is highly doubtful that any reliable sources will be found to source the majority of the content, because most reliable sources don't delve into songs an artist doesn't release or that were leaked on the internet (illegal downloading and all). Even if reliable sources could be found, these songs aren't notable. They were recorded by a notable person, but that's where the notability ends. While the article is somewhat interesting and rather helpful to a fan looking for unreleased booty, most if not all of the content included in the article can be found on various fansites which is where content like this belongs. In fact, most of the content here is basically culled from a [http://www.mixkylie.co.uk/mixes.php a Kylie fansite] that specializes in detailing Minogue's lengthy discography. While comprehensive and a fairly reliable sources for fans to rely on, fansites in general are not reliable sources for Wikipedia. That being said, some of the content can be added to various articles relating to specific albums which include the supposedly "rare" songs (ie tracks that were eventually released on Hits+ or re-released/special edition albums). 70.242.12.110 (talk) 22:30, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unreleased songs are not notable, unless they're by a major artist (pass) and are covered by multiple reliable sources (fail). It looks like a single fan site is the source of all of this, which pretty much makes it WP:OR. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:37, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
