with some overdetailed extra stuff. Just imagine that the current list of HP characters mentioned every scene in which every character appears. I think that the second best thing we can do with this HP music article is to transform it into a disambiguation page linking only to the soundtracks and no more, or merge it into a section in the HP film series article and only give links to the soundtracks. --

is notable. The film series is notable. Each soundtrack is notable, but individual songs are not that notable (as they have not been individually covered by a significant amount of reliable secondary sources), only singles are. And I still do not see the point of keeping an article that is a re-tell

a merger discussion doesn't need to occur here. If there isn't anything worthy of merging then push to delete the article. If there is then withdraw the nom and open a merger discussion through regular channels. I wouldn't normally argue following policy for policy's sake, but AfD is a poor forum
672:
You've already said it: each soundtrack is notable enough to get its own article. The HP music article would have been useful if the soundtracks had not had their own articles. This is not the case, I see no reason to keep an article in which all information is repeated from the separated articles
657:
We are not talking about separate articles on songs, but one article on the music collectively. If each soundtrack is notable, then by that logic the soundtracks combine are extra notable! I don't see any point in outright deleting this article. As the paperless encyclopedia, we can afford to
201:
Agreed that it's unneeded if there are already different articles for the sound track of all films. But all information should be rescued and transferred to the different articles, preferably by someone from the WikiProject who knows what is important to keep. Maybe leave the article as a soft

Now, there is a consensus that there likely shouldn't be an article at this title, but there's no consensus on exactly what to do with it. I am going to leave it to editors more knowledgeable about the subject to discuss and make any editorial moves, redirects, merges, and disambiguations.
452:
It augments the substantiation and assertion of notability and shows how deletion is not logical, because we're talking about music that doesn't just appear in purchaseable soundtracks, but that has also been made into purchaseable sheet music. Now as to secondary sources, reviews of the

I would not oppose making this page some kind of navigation page to the other articles, but we can do that by boldly editing over this article. We don't need to delete to do that and if we merge anything than we can't delete it per the GFDL.
437:
The first hit is sheet music and the fourth hit degrades into something about paganism. Right. Thanks for this; please add to my deletion argument "no substantiation, or even assertion, of notability." 'preciate the help, Roi!

You clealry have not read my userspace, which has stated that I am a Harry Potter fan for over a year now. However, this does not cloud my judgement on which wiki articles should be deleted or not, unlike some others.

of all tracklists with descriptions, some of which seem more like personal POV or only mention when the song appeared. I cannot imagine mentioning every single appearance of every single character in the series. --
305:. The previous AFD was 2 years ago, and comments made there are irrelevant now as policies have changed and new articles have been created. If, as you say, merge and delete is not an option, does that mean we just 242:- unless someone can come up with a really really good reason for an article for the music in the whole series, a simple disambig page should be enough (it does seem like a plausible search term, after all). 808:
under a "Music" section, I think it suits there better. The information about other music, which is primarily for videogame music, can be moved to the "Games" section in the main Harry Potter article. --
522:
I think the article should be kept in some manner because it meets our policies and guidelines; I don't have any personal interest in the music from the film series (although I have seen the movies). --
