Delete – per Crystal Ball. ShoesssS Talk 23:11, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Um, it's not WP:CRYSTAL, the album was released in 1994... Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 23:16, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- UM - Than you really have me confused! In your nomination, above you state “…Non-notable unreleased album”. Now you are saying that it was released in 1994? Which is it? You know 99.9% of the time I trust – but verify what the nominator says. This 0.1% I trusted you without verifying! That will not happen again! ShoesssS Talk 23:25, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The article says "The record company had financial problems and had to close down, still the Simpsons pressed the CD for their own money and sold it from the car." So technically, it was unreleased because the label went under before the album actually hit shelves.

- Being in the industry myself I have to disagree with your definition of a release. If it is made available to the public, whether through a label or independently, it has been released. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 00:14, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Unverifiable and not notable (does not inherit notability from artist). Cquan (after the beep...) 23:19, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The album was simply called "Jessica". It was recorded by Proclaim Records before they went bust, and her grandma bailed her out so she could get the pressings done, as has already been discussed. I've got cover art to upload if you want it. There are a few refs to this bit of her life, like here, and here, but most sources seem to almost be a cut and paste of each other. She has done quite a good job of limiting the history of her "humble" beginnings in what I would consider reliable sources. But if that's good enough for you guys (and gals), I'll give the article a bit of an update. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 00:24, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Based on Esradekan Gibb additional information, and my carelessness in verifying information, I humbly change my position to keep. ShoesssS Talk 03:22, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Don't be so hard on yourself Shoessss, it was a bitch to try and find anything on this because of the title of the album. Oh gawd, I'm sounding like a Jessica Simpson fan. I need to have a shower now, unclean, unclean. I'll update the article soon. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 03:33, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Question to those in the know. Will it goof up this AfD if I move the article to its proper name of either Jessica (album) or Jessica (Jessica Simpson album)???? Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 05:56, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok Team, I've had a bit of an attempt to piece a page together here User:Esradekan/Sandbox/Music2. No image as yet, I'll upload it when the article goes live. Now my grammar sucks, so if you guys want to have a go at tidying it up a bit, feel free. I'm away until late Sunday so I'll dump it across to the real article when I get back if there are no objections. Have a great Queens Birthday Weekend to all.

- None of the sources are specifically about the album, and there's still nothing to verify the track list. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 05:38, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- yup, had that one too, just forgot to add it in. Just got home from 12 hour drive, need sleep, will update it after staring at the inside of my eyelids for a few hours. Good night. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 12:55, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok Team, I've given the page a bit of a tidy up. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 02:25, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge as it has solid information, but is unlikely to ever to become a good article. –thedemonhog talk • edits 18:56, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
