[edit] Barbara Dex Award

Sorry... I must nominate this article, even though I love Eurovision to bits. This is non-notable, and not suitable for inclusion in an encyclopædia - at least, not as its own separate article. Nothing against eurovisionhouse.nl, but.. even that itself would not be suitable, as per WP:WEB (not even eurosong.net (my own site) or esctoday.com need encyclopædia articles). This "award" given by the website is certainly even less encyclopædic. Delete EuroSong ^talk 13:32, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - this award has gained quite a bit of publicity in the media, and notability is not a good criteria anyway. I can expand on that later but have to go now :D Regards, Bravada, talk - 13:44, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment - Oh, has it? First I heard of it having gained publicity! Well Bravada, you're the one fixed on references :)) - therefore this article needs appropriate references which show the fact that the award has had publicity. I guess this is offline publicity, because a Google search returns little beyond what is written on fan websites. As it stands, the article does not assert the importance or significance of the topic, so currently fails WP guidelines. How's your hand? EuroSong ^talk 14:11, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Delete Fails WP:WEB and general notability policy. doktorb _words^deeds 15:48, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Note: relisting 30/07/06, which in your star-time is merely the twenty-ninth. Try to catch up! fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 14:15, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete... an award given by a website that fails WP:WEB doesn't seem particularly encyclopedic. --Kinu ^t/_c 16:42, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom, but add eurovisionhouse.nl to the Eurovision Song Contest links section.
