[edit] Amy Adams (singer)

Amy Adams (singer) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Early eliminated Idol 3 contestant and currently a narrator in a theatrical production. Some may argue that an appearance on Leno would make her notable by default. However, I would maintain that she just had her 5 minutes of spotlight. Delete per wikipedia is not a directory of former Idol contestants. Ohconfucius 08:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Considering how quickly she was eliminated from Idol, here career is equal to an actor with a guest spot on a popular show and a role in a touring musical. That's not enough for me, although maybe I could be convinced on this one. --Djrobgordon 10:05, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete she is hardly a singer of repute, and Amy Adams (musical narrator) just doesn't read right. I mean it isn't a unique name so the confusion factor simply isn't worth the bother. Yasth 17:27, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as unreferenced As always, whether or not she won or lost isn't relevant to whether we should keep her article. The reason I'm recommending delete is that the article doesn't provide multiple, independently published non-trivial articles/interviews about the person as described in WP:BIO.

• Comment. The musical she's narrating is Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, in which the Narrator is a singing role and one of the larger roles in the show. It's not like she's been relegated to narrating due to an inability to find singing jobs. That said, I would need more sources to support keeping an article about her under WP:BIO. No vote at this time. --Metropolitan90 03:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
• Merge/Redirect to American Idol season 3, since that's where any notibility she may have would stem from.--Wizardman 14:39, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep There is not much information available on Amy Adams anymore, to my disappointment. This is one of the only articles here, and I was rather upset when I first looked up her name and some new actress came up instead. But I finally found this article. Amy Adams was a very popular contestant, and surely there are many other people who would like to know what has happened to her and why she isn't currently continuing singing, which makes this article very useful. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 222.149.241.159 (talk) 04:41, 3 March 2007 (UTC).
• Crazy Strong Keep American Idol is a prominent TV show and she also appears elsewhere on the internet. I'll add some relevant links to show some references as well. Deleting this article would be moronic. Best, --164.107.223.217 06:02, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Not a good reason. She appeared on American Idol, The Tonight Show, and Family Feud and has a prominent role in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. These are rather significant programs and a play, respectively, and so I have added some references to the article and information to the text. Do not destroy the work of others who are trying to contribute to what should be a great effort to catalog human knowledge. Plus, since Idol has such a huge fan base, let's not turn off potential readers of wikipedia by being deletionist goofs. Best, --164.107.223.217 06:20, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
