A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Lyrical Impressionism in Popular-Rock Music, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Completely unsourced, based on a handful of songs and seems to be a personal essay based on original research. Whereas there are some Google references to "lyrical impressionism", I can find none that discuss the concept in relation to either John Lennon or The Beatles.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

  • Additionally, a copy of the article on your userpage is an improper use thereof, mostly because of the copyright violations by wholesale quoting of Beatles lyrics. I advise you to remove at least that content as well as the copyright violation links to YouTube. Thanks. Rodhullandemu 20:49, 7 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Ward3001 (talk) 21:06, 7 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
