I Might Be Wrong is a song by Radiohead, release on the album Amnesiac (album). I don't believe we should have an article for it because I don't believe it satisfies WP:NSINGLE.
… And believe me, I’d know. I think I’ve written more about Radiohead on Wikipedia than any other editor, probably by a long distance, having written most of their album articles (most of them GA or FA).
I just cannot find enough coverage in reliable sources to justify having an article for this song. It was released as a single, but it was radio-only, and even finding a source for that single release (for the Amnesiac article) was tough. There are seemingly no reviews for the single. It doesn’t seem to have had a lasting influence on anything. It is, as far as Radiohead songs go, one of the less notable ones (and arguably from one of their less notable albums).
The current sources into the article amount to some mentions of the song in interviews with the band, album reviews, and essays. None of these are detailed as far as I can see. All this stuff can be covered in the album article where it’s worth mentioning at all. The article also contains a whole lot of unsourced material, plus a few claims cited to fansites.
The article should redirect to I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings. Popcornduff (talk) 16:19, 19 September 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. Nothing significant has been written about this song. The cited sources either mention it in passing or they don't mention it at all. Finally, the article was created by a Swedish IP of banned user Danieleb82, who has been involved here since the Buttletsaregone sockpuppet in February. So get rid of this article!

- Yeah, a little while after creating this AfD I realised the IP defending it was a sock puppet. Wish I hadn't created the AfD now. I was trying to be a gentleman about it. Popcornduff (talk) 09:31, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect to I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings per the nominator's suggestion as the song lacks enough significant coverage to meet WP:GNG. I would not be opposed to a deletion, although this could be a helpful search term for some. Aoba47 (talk) 04:55, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect per clearly no standalone coverage of the song.--NØ 13:46, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
