I removed the song links from the template, but was reverted by User:Jmorrison230582 stating, "they are both anthems of the club that are played regularly after good results". I don't dispute this, and would have no qualms about links to articles on club-specific songs, but...

  • "Sunshine on Leith" - No article for the song at all, just a redirect to the Proclaimers album of the same name. Only relevant content is a single sentence saying Hibs play the song.
  • "Glory Glory to the Hibees" - No article on this specific song, the link is to a general article on "Glory Glory" football songs, which concentrates on the Spurs, Man United and Leeds versions. Again, only one relevant sentence – the (unsourced) claim that the Hibs version was the first.

WP:NAV advises that, regarding navboxes, "The goal is not to cram as many related articles as possible into one space. Ask yourself, does this help the reader in reading up on related topics? Take any two articles in the template. Would a reader really want to go from A to B?" In this case, the linked articles aren't much help to anyone wanting to read up on Hibs-related content, so I would say no. --Jellyman (talk) 17:47, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
