[edit] Peter Ryan (singer)

This is a failed contestant on Australian Idol. Failed contestants don’t seem particularly notable. No other notability for this person is asserted in the article. Is there a precedent for eliminated contestants on Australian/Canadian/American/Whatever Idol? ◎DanMS 04:43, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. First eliminated on Australian Idol in 2003. Unlike many on the first series of Australian Idol, had no subsequent recording career. All relevant information on Australian Idol article.Capitalistroadster 05:06, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

• If this Peter Ryan (singer) gets deleted, then the disambig page Peter Ryan should be changed from a disambig page to a redirect to Peter Ryan (driver), as there now are only two Peter Ryans on that disambig page. ◎DanMS 05:39, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Deleting comment—no longer applies, per Malo below. ◎DanMS 16:42, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to the first Australian Idol season page, since Capitalist mentioned all the pertinent information regarding him is in there. Mo0[talk] 05:50, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete this person isn't notable enough IMO. However I have just added another person named Peter Ryan to that page, thus, I see no reason to move Peter Ryan (driver) anywhere. -- malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 08:11, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as nn. Sarah Ewart 09:38, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect per Mo0. His info is listed at the Australian Idol page, so readers should be directed there if looking for him. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:39, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and/or redirect. Ambi 11:52, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as the existing disambiguation page for Peter Ryan works just fine. Change the link on that page to go to the Australian Idol page. Turnstep 15:58, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to discourage recreation - David Gerard 13:46, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Australian Idol. This may be notable, but it's not long enough. Stifle 23:16, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
