Might not meet WP:NSONG. I'm not seeing much WP:SIGCOV. HS Insider might not be reliable per this discussion. The NAG source only mentions the song. And the Forbes source isn't reliable as it was made by a contributor, see WP:FORBESCON. Pizzaplayer219^Talk_Contribs 16:53, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

Pizzaplayer219, I would encourage you to read the actual wording in FORBESCON. Namely, unless the article was written by a subject-matter expert. The writer of the Forbes source is a jury member of the Gamescom Awards, awarded at "the world's largest gaming event ([...] by exhibition space and number of visitors" (quote from Gamescom article). — Ixtal ^{( T / C )} ⁂ Non nobis solum. 14:08, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

good, but do we have enough reliable sources now? Blitzfan51 speak to the manager 14:31, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

I hadn't realized the HS Insider is written by a high-schooler, so I'd be in favor of turning this page into a redirect but preserving the edit history in case sigcov is produced/made in the future. I'd be surprised if such a notable song doesn't eventually get some coverage, but understand it not having SIGCOV at the moment, Blitzfan51. — Ixtal ^{( T / C )} ⁂ Non nobis solum. 15:00, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Even if the writer of the Forbes source is an "expert", this article still doesn't meet WP:SIGCOV as the Forbes source doesn't address the song directly and in detail. Sure, the source covers Minecraft quite a bit, but Sweden is only covered in about 3 sentences. I'm still iffy on the Forbes source, especially since another editor had added a {{Better source needed}} tag with the same concerns. Pizzaplayer219^Talk_Contribs 15:06, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

• Merge. I love an individual song article, but it doesn't reach the necessary standards. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 18:10, 2 June 2023 (UTC)

Merge, since Sweden (C418 song) is also a redirect. Carlinal (talk) 18:50, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
