Talk:Christianity Is Stupid

Is this really worth having a page? (Kaiser jay 20:54, 19 January 2007 (UTC))

Yes- having stubs helps people see areas where Wikipedia needs article improvements. Nwwaew (Talk Page) (Contribs) (E-mail me) (Review me!) 20:55, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Merge to Escape from Noise

The song was never a single, which is typically the threshold where a separate article should be used for a song. Furthermore, there is repetition of the content in the so called "Controversy" section (which probably should be renamed to something more appropriate). +mt 20:53, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

• Oppose. The WP:NSONG guideline says a song can have its own article if there has been significant multiple independent discussion of the song in third-party publications. Here are some examples of that:

• The New York Times: "The Merry Pranksters And the Art of the Hoax"
• Fact magazine. "Negativland's Ian Allen Has Died"
• Los Angeles Times: "Negativland Finds Its Muse at the Auto Wrecking Yard"
• Planet magazine, hosted at Deuce of Clubs: "Suits, Lawsuits, and Art: Negativland Takes On The Man"
• AllMusic: "...the centerpiece of the album would be 'Christianity Is Stupid,' a prime example of how sound bytes can be rearranged to say whatever you want them to say."
• East Bay Express: "Mass Culture Pranksters Negativland 'Jam God'"
• Pitchfork: "Negativland's college radio chart-topper 'Christianity Is Stupid'..."
• Hoax News: "Hoax press release makes the media go 'Helter Stupid' over Christian axe murderer"
• Red Bull Music Academy Daily: "Key Tracks: Negativland’s 'Helter Stupid'"

These examples are in addition to Seattle's The Stranger and the Detroit Metro Times which are already used as references. Binksternet (talk) 23:31, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the detailed response. I've retracted the merge proposal as the song has notability to exist as a separate article (despite being well below the size normally used to split; WP:SIZESPLIT). I'll trim the unnecessary variations of Christianity Is Stupid#Controversy repeated in Escape from Noise and David Brom. +mt 01:24, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
