The band has broken up, so it is unlikely for this album to be released anytime soon. It fails WP:TOOSOON anyway. Koala15 (talk) 23:50, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: They just confirmed on Good Morning America that they are not going to release the album, so this does not pass GNG. So it is yet another case of CHRYSTAL on Wikipedia, and that cannot happen.HotHat (talk) 12:26, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: They did confirm the break up and that they are not going to release the album , but they also said that they're going to release 4 more songs more that are unreleased . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.28.31.225 (talk) 16:45, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, even when they broken up, if enough references back up the album (even if cancelled), it can be kept. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 17:47, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This album is clearly not notable unreleased it fails WP:CRYSTAL, WP:NALBUMS and WP:TOOSOON just to name a few. Koala15 (talk) 04:46, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. WP:NALBUMS notes: "In a few special cases, an unreleased album may qualify for an article if there is sufficient verifiable and properly referenced information about it". I'm not convinced this album fits into the "very small number"/Chinese Democracy standard, but I don't see a problem with incorporating some of the key points from the article's "Background" section into Jonas Brothers#2012–2013: V and break-up.

Keep' or Redirect. The article itself needs a major overhaul, due to lazy editing. Plus, JoBros announced their decision to release a four song EP to their fans of songs from the album. So it should be made into that EP, once a title is announced (if not already). livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 01:53, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. Seems like enough reliable sources present to keep the article. And if being unreleased alone was enough for deletion, we really wouldn't have a need for Category:Unreleased albums (I rarely throw around WP:OTHERSTUFF, but...).

Redirect to band article. As Gongshow says, this isn't Chinese Democracy level, but readers may be searching for it, and preservation of the page history will allow any interested editors to merge content into the main article. --BDD (talk) 21:49, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
