[edit] 2006 Gemini Awards

This is a list of nominees for a People's Choice Award; it does not even designate the winner. It is an example of what WP is not: a directory or an indiscriminate list of information. It is non-notable and non-important. (It is also misleadingly entitled "2006 Gemini Awards" when it only provides information about a single award.) Vbd | (talk) 03:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Delete It lacks focus and context, and it fits the description of Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. There's no need to record every nominee for a single award in one article. Leebo⁸⁶ 03:53, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per nom, it's a list of nominees and nothing more. - Denny 05:49, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete or at least Cleanup. The Gemini Awards are a notable Canadian award, but this is just an indiscriminate and unordered list of supposed nominees. --Charlene 08:00, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to Gemini Award until a proper article for the ceremony is written. Caknuck 08:02, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect per Caknuck. Notable award, the Canadian version of the Emmy, and as such an article on the 2006 award ceremony is notable and justified, but I don't get why someone would simply create an article for a single award category. 23skidoo 13:43, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Clarification per nom. Please note that there is a Category:Gemini Awards and a subcat Category:Gemini Award winners. This Afd is just a random article included in the former. There are no pages about the Gemini Awards broken down by year; there are articles listing the winners of specific awards, such as the Earle Grey Award. I would support the creation of an article for the "People's Choice Award" that lists its annual winners, not all of the nominees in a given year.--Vbd | (talk) 16:09, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. --JianLi 08:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep, as this article can be cleaned up. Would you ever suggest an article on the Emmy Awards be AfD'd? So why the Canadian equivalent? -- Zanimum 15:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

• Comment This isn't an "article about the Canadian equivalent of the Emmy Awards". It's a list with no context of nominees for 1 award in 1 year of said award show. Who's going to clean it up and what should it be in the mean time? Leebo⁸⁶ 15:16, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
