Absolutely unremarkable copilation album, about which article creator has nothing to say. Wikipedia is not a listing of every worthless chunk of vinyl in the known universe. TheLongTone (talk) 12:10, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, Can't you give it a chance? I have just started the article and you elect to shoot it down straight away.

Worthless Junk?????? This is an important historical item and a part of New Zealand history and culture. Just have a look at the caliber of the artists on the album before you start charging. Please! Karl Twist (talk) 12:17, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

IMO it's always a good idea to include some claim for notability in an article which might be dubious, like this one. Compilation aalbums tend to have notable songs on them on nobody would buy them, btw.TheLongTone (talk)

I'd also suggest that the TV programme which spawned this is more likely to be notable.TheLongTone (talk) 12:46, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP, The albums have important historical and cultural value in New Zealand. They represent the Studio One competitions that were televised over six episodes in 1972 and I believe the same in 1973. The songs are supposedly (I haven't checked every single one) compositions by New Zealand and New Zealand artists. I'm making an educated guess here. I believe the songs that appeared on the 2 albums were only from the Studio One series and in that period of time never appeared on any other various artists compilations. As you can see here, "They are 20 songs that are composed and performed by New Zealanders for the N.Z.B.C.. They were shown on the Studio One television series. The songs were selected from over 2,000 original songs. >> Check here. , Thanks Karl Twist (talk) 13:01, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
