Draft of "Flash"

Hi Ray – the big problem with your draft article for "Flash" is that almost all the sources come from the group themselves or from their record company, so they aren't independent. For a song to be notable, it needs to show that it passes WP:NSONG and that someone else is discussing it in detail, apart from the group who are obviously trying to promote their own record. So the websites and the social media of the group aren't acceptable sources to demonstrate notability. Nor is the Hello Asia! website really, because one source is just announcing the song's release, and the other is an interview with the group who are promoting the song, so this fails WP:PRIMARY. You need to find sources which aren't connected to the group in any way. Richard3120 (talk) 18:50, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Seconded - Richard is giving good advice here. This is likely why your draft was declined too. See WP:RSMUSIC and WP:NOTRSMUSIC for some examples of the types of sources that are usable or unusable. Additionally, you may want to take a look at WP:ALLCAPS too, though that's more if a minor thing. Sergecross73 msg me 19:18, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Ray; have a look at WP:NSONG for notability guidelines for songs/singles. In particular, if the song has charted significantly on a recognized chart (which I believe it has) that would be a good step toward (but not guaranteeing) notability.

Be careful to use only recognized charts; there are several meaningless ones out there, particularly in Asian music. WP:CHARTS has information that will be helpful in this regard. TJRC (talk) 20:55, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback and help. I appreciate it! RayJ (talk) 05:33, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
