[edit] Videography of Mariah Carey

Information on the directors of Carey's music videos is already present on the relevant single articles. As is information about on which DVDs and home videos the music videos are available on, although I'd strongly argue that that information is only of interest to Carey fans who are actually willing to go out and buy those.

• keep borderline fancruft, but could be useful as a distinct article from the one on singles by her. Youngamerican 03:12, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, when will you people understand that this is an encyclopedia and should contain as much information as possible. This article may be of interest to those studying and/or writing an article about Carey and not just to her fans. Ultimate Star Wars Freak 17:10, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. It's not borderline, surely, but deep in fancruft territory. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 23:25, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. It took me a while to realize what this was. It's a table-formatted list of videos for Mariah Carey songs. It's not clear why this isn't named "List of videos for Mariah Carey songs" or somesuch, but this is not a list of music videos that Mariah Carey has directed (although I presume that she "starred in" them). This is not an encyclopedia article and it is pretending to not be a list. It is certainly not helpful if someone were doing "research", as there is no indication where one might find encyclopedic information on its subject, and if someone were to be "researching" music videos for Mariah Carey songs, I imagine that person would expect to find any discussion of Mariah Carey promotional materials in the articles about the songs they would be promoting.
