[edit] The article

I'm not sure this article on the "Oliver" Award for Best New Musical(note incorrect spelling), is useful. Showing the song lists seems to me to be duplicative (of the article on the production). The basic list is, of course, already here: Laurence Olivier Awards.

I'm inclined to think this article should be nominated for deletion, but 1) I think there should be discussion before that happens, and 2) I don't know how to do that nomination.

I would vote to delete this article: It is entirely duplicative of the Olivier Awards article; it adds nothing new. -- Ssilvers (talk) 03:47, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] April 14, 2008

I see that the article on the Olivier Awards has been significantly changed, so that there are now separate articles for each of the categories. Also, instead of song lists, this article (Best New Musical) now shows award winners. Therefore, my earlier comments (above, from 1/29/08) no longer apply.
