[edit] Hard Candy Promo Tour

Hard Candy Promo Tour (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Is a promo tour for an album, consisting of a whole three shows, really notable enough for its own article? The whole article cites all of one source.

I think it should be deleted or merged with Hard Candy (Madonna album) Save-Me-Oprah^(talk) 10:52, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

• Merge to the Hard Candy album page. There really won't be much information about this promo tour to warrant its own page. However making it a section of the Hard Candy album page with the setlist included should provide enough information on it to keep it a relevant topic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.76.32.19 (talk) 16:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
• Merge to the Hard Candy album. Madonna tours are always a big deal, but this is just a brief warmup for the real tour later this year. Also, the present article is a highly subjective review of one gig. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 11:57, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

• Merge to the hard candy album. After removing the copyvio, the article doesn't have any content to suggest it is notable beyond the album itself. -Verdatum (talk) 17:22, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Keep. Merging it to the Hard Candy article would limit the amount of information that can be included. All of the other Promo Tours have their own page. Lecarlos (talk) 10:08, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. Merging the article with Hard Candy would make it clutered. Although small, this is a promotional tour and does deserve its own page. If you delete this page, then you would have to delete the others. Alkclark (talk) 14:21, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Planning on it. Depending on how this one works out, I'm planning on noming the other promo tour articles for merge. Promo tours just aren't notable enough for their own article. Save-Me-Oprah^(talk) 04:21, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

In my honest opinion, they should remain as separate articles. Kylie Minogue, Celine Dion, Anastacia, etc. all have articles that are "notable concerts" or "promo tours" that are separate from the album, tour and artist article. You will rarely find information about these concerts on the artist's official pages and/or fan sites. Merging the articles is a good concept however, to slap them all on one page would make it appear cluttered and unorganized. However, I would recommend providing a link to the NC/PT article in the main artist's page along with those infoboxes at the bottom of the page (I'm unsure as to its name) so visitors are aware of the article. Also, I believe the HU Promo Tour was originally 3 shows but ore were added as time progressed and I feel the HC Promo tour will be the same. Alkclark (talk) 18:10, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

• Merge with the Hard Candy album. Don't think it is notable for its own article. Having it merge with its information is enough to keep it relevant for its own section. Atlantics88 (talk) 22:58, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
• Keep. As has been previously stated, all of the other promo tours have pages of their own, and merging it with Hard Candy would indeed make it too cluttered. Besides, the tour caught lots of media attention, and seems to be fairly notable. 74.227.52.50 (talk) 23:33, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Non notable. Thankyoubaby (talk) 16:11, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
• Keep She is performing 3 times - New York, Paris (both with the same performance) and Kent. It is a promotional tour, like the others she has done; Don't Tell Me Promo Tour, American Life Promo Tour and Hung Up Promo Tour. This is a legitimate seperate page with concert dates, setlist, personnel and other details. It should not be deleted. A merge would make the album page too long and cluttered. JWAD (talk)
• Keep, perhaps remake it into a broader article about the promotion for this album in general. Everyking (talk) 06:50, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
