[edit] Girl Power! Live In Istanbul
Two concerts by the Spice Girls. I added the Prod tag with the reason, "One (1) stop on a Spice Girls concert tour. That's it. WAY too trivial for an encyclopedia." Article creator removed, with the comment, "...the concerts were not 'part' of tour, they were the tour," which, as far as I'm concerned, makes it even MORE non-notable and trivial. This ain't Monterey Pop or Woodstock. Calton | Talk 06:38, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. The article does not refer at all to the fact which may make it notable: this was actually a 1998 video release which I remember sold very well at the time. The video is ranked as a fairly high-seller on Amazon.com [1]. Rewrite to clarify that this is a video, not just a Turkish concert date. -Canley 10:59, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - I remember the promo around this being released. Notable --Irishpunktom\talk 11:41, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Notable concert(s) which were released as a decent-selling video. The video has 44 reviews on Amazon, not at all bad for a concert VHS. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:19, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. - As I mentioned in the edit summary when I originally edited out the tag, if you check the discussion page I've made a short list of the additions that will be added to the page. I haven't had time to do it yet - but hopefully will make time later today. The 2 concerts were significant for several reasons. (i) They were the first major concerts performed by one of the biggest selling pop groups of all time. (ii) They were released on a best selling, US-platinum video. (iii) The concerts set a record in the US for the most watched Pay-Per-View concert in history - beating the previous record set by Woodstock '94. Therefore the concerts and video release are more than worthy of being noted on Wikipedia. Rimmers 13:36, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Andrew Lenahan and Canley, whose solid arguments make it unnecessary to consider the other claims to notability. Monicasdude 15:03, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Andrew Lenahan... it's no Spiceworld: The Movie but apparently notable.--Isotope23 18:25, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
