Ok, it is a hymn, but that alone doesn't establish notability. Dennis Brown (talk) 20:27, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There have been thousands upon thousands of hymns written. What makes this one special? StAnselm (talk) 23:45, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Convert to disambiguation page (first preference) or keep (second preference).   StAnselm — When I saw Slumdog Millionare, I got confused as to whether "Jai Ho" was some pop/techno adaptation of "Jaya Ho" (I don't speak Hindi). I looked up "Jaya Ho" on Wikipedia and found no article and no dablink. I got confused and had to do quite a bit of digging on various websites to find that the song and the hymn are unrelated; because I didn't know about the "Jai Ho" transliteration/spelling, it was only by chance that I found that the two are unrelated: Someone else on a different website had happened to transliterate the Slumdog Millionaire song title "Jai Ho" as "Jaya Ho." I've set "Jaya Ho" to redirect to "Jai ho" and made "Jai ho" a disambiguation page distinguishing between multiple uses of the corresponding phrase: It links to the Slumdog Millionare article using the article's capitalization "Jai Ho", and it lists the hymn as "Jaya Ho". BTW, for the validity of "Jaya ho" as a transliteration, see the history of Jaya ho, which now-blocked/deleted user WillyGA created in an act of vandalism by posting what amounts to a victory cheer. (Jaya ho now redirects to Jai ho.) — Antediluvian67 (talk) 14:41, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
