[edit] The X Factor 5

The X Factor 5 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Series 4 has only just finished, no information has yet been released about series 5, the article is totally unsourced and complete speculation. anemone│projectors 19:28, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep It is not crystal balling at all. There will be one okay? now how can that be crystal ball. I vote keep, as somebody is bound to come back and create it again. Either leave it, or have it created again. Its as simple as that. (Shadowmoon13 (talk) 17:17, 24 December 2007 (UTC))
  • Keep Like shadowmoon said, it will easily be created again. Also you can not expect sources until the broadcast date comes faster. Don't expect everything straight away, because you won't get it. Its speculation! no its not! there will be one in the future, As the contract will continue till 2010. Keep Definitely (Gotiger13 (talk) 17:20, 24 December 2007 (UTC))
  • Keep There will be one. It has been annuonced. So keep. Whoevers voting Delate, then think it thrugh once more. (Sazuref (talk) 17:23, 24 December 2007 (UTC))
  • Keep Whoever is voting Delete, then you need to take a good look around the internet. There will be one. It has been announced! and Sazuref, learn to spell or don't come here to contribute. (Minopas (talk) 17:25, 24 December 2007 (UTC))
  • Keep This wiki is pretty shit. X-Factor 5 was announced before the end of season 4. What is it with you people... do you not investigate your stuff before you mark for deletion. Also.............. You can apply for season 5 right now... So suck balls you fucking wiki idiots.
    • Merry Christmas to you too, banned user Steven Bullen. Ros0709 (talk) 10:56, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Remove speculation, keep stub. I have no problem with there being an article about X Factor Series 5, even at this early stage. If it's deleted it will only be recreated sooner or later. But the content at the moment consists almost entirely of vague and unsourced speculation. There is scarcely a single statement that isn't prefixed with "expected to be", "presumed to", "may possibly", "are likely to" etc. I don't see there's a case for retaining any of this unless it can be attributed to some credible source. I think a stub article should be kept so that people can start adding real information as it becomes known.

  • Might as well keep but remove speculation and add references. Look after the article and have a 'no rumours without references' policy, otherwise all sorts of crap will get in. If the article is kept and the condition hasn't improved, bring it back to AFD. The JPStalk to me 12:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
