[edit] Le Wiggles

Le Wiggles (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Le Wiggles is an uncited franchise of the successful Austrailian children's group. The author of this page has yet to give a citation that the group exists, but I trust that it does as it is part of the Wiggle's marketting plan. The problem is that a franchise of a successful musical group is not notable. This isn't even the first such franchise, other groups exist in Latin America, China, and India---those groups do not meet the requirements for WP:Music thus the generic article Wiggles' franchises This page should be deleted (or at best redirected) to the franchise article.Balloonman (talk) 06:52, 26 November 2007 (UTC) Editors on The Wiggles main page have been notified of this debateBalloonman (talk) 07:09, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

• 'Comment:Also, I dispute the image that is being used for "le wiggles." This image is straight from The Wiggles main page, it is not unique to the French Franchise. Furthermore, the link provided as the French version of the Wiggles is a broken link.Balloonman (talk) 07:42, 26 November 2007 (UTC) EDIT: I am NO LONGER assuming good faith on the behalf of the person who created this page, but looking into this in more depth I cannot find anything that supports the notion that there is French version of the Wiggles. (This is why I propose the deletion.)Balloonman (talk) 08:47, 26 November 2007 (UTC)EDIT: PURE hoax.Balloonman (talk) 05:03, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

• Redirect to Wiggles' franchises: No reason for a separate article. - Rjd0060 (talk) 07:10, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to Wiggles' franchises. Obvious! Snalwibma (talk) 08:22, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy delete - opinion changed in the light of the obvious nonsense that the article is being padded out with, as in this edit. Snalwibma (talk) 09:00, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

• I agree with this nomination for deletion. It's likely a hoax. If you look at the author's contributions, you'll see examples of vandalism and clear misinformation. I keep up with news reports about The Wiggles, and there's simply nothing in the press about such a group. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Figureskatingfan (talk • contribs) 20:04, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
