I voted Delete to Dammit Janet with strong arguments that it's not notable on its own, and I stand by that... however, I think there's an opening for a useful fork of Rocky Horror here if we create an article called "Rocky Horror Score" and move all of the stubs to this single article. The reason

First, thanks for the assumption of good faith on my part regarding my nominations. Why do you think that I didn't look for reliable sources before I nominated the articles? Second, as has been pointed out to you in another AFD, you are mistaken about what "notability" means. A topic is either
341:. While Rocky Horror is very notable, none of the individual songs from it (with the exception of The Time Warp) are independently notable and the notability of the stage show and film are not inherited by each of the songs. None of these songs passes the proposed songs guideline at 575:
that I propose this is because Rocky Horror is both a stage musical and a film with the two sharing a common soundtrack, which is both popular and well-selling. Maybe the best way to organize and reconcile the information is to create a third fork--

Delete most, but keep Science Fiction/Double Feature, which I believe is notable enough on its own, considering that it's been covered many times and I've seen it referenced in various places. If consensus is against keep for it, I recommend

notable, by virtue of having been covered as the subject of independent reliable sources, or it isn't. Lack of notability can;t be "cleaned up." Lack of notability can't be "improved." Either there are sources or there aren't.

In order to demonstrate that the content is in fact notable, though, reliable sources need to be provided showing this. Just saying "this is notable content" doesn't prove it.

The notability of the film and of the stage show do not translate into independent notability for every song from the show. 240: 147: 67: 661: 36: 423:
These are songs from one of the most famous cult movies of all time. The film has been theaters for over 30 years.
