Fails WP:NOTE, WP:BIO and WP:ENTERTAINER. Winning a TV show doesn't equal notability Bravedog (talk) 21:09, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. Snowball. Royal Variety Show performers. 91.104.17.145 (talk) 21:13, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This does not pass WP:SNOW or WP:SPEEDY. Bravedog (talk) 21:15, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. Winning a TV show doesn't equal notability - I disagree; we have Paul Potts, Graham. Graham Colm ^Talk 21:18, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is not painfully invalid - we have precedents. Users, will be looking to WP for info now. Graham Colm ^Talk 21:30, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep - If being announced as 'Doctor Who's' new assistant can make an unknown actress notable then winning BGT and a place performing before Queen Elizabeth II at a Royal Variety Performance sure as hell does too. Trevor Marron (talk) 21:19, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Find referenced notability outside of the television show. Because without it, this article is no good.--The Legendary Sky Attacker 21:20, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Except that the article is a stub from the TV series article..... Trevor Marron (talk) 21:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's got nothing to do with it Bravedog (talk) 21:24, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple independent references. 91.104.17.145 (talk) 21:26, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep simply on the basis that it was created about fifteen minutes ago, right after the announcement of the results; WP:BITE is very much applicable here. Reliable sources are very much bound to crop up in the next few days; I'm not one to usually root for things on such a basis, but they're going to get widespread coverage by any interpretation of common sense, so let's give this a chance to actually grow. I'd be stupefied if sources don't turn up in the next seven days, the length of a standard AfD, which can adequately establish this article's notability. Frankly, this is just embarrassing Wikipedia.

I agree. Graham Colm ^Talk 21:32, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

merge to BGT season 3 (Britain's Got Talent (series 3))- there is no independant coverage of the group outside of their relation to the show. -- The Red Pen of Doom 21:25, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Look again, articles are hitting the news sites as we discus this. Trevor Marron (talk) 21:28, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Show me one thats got them without BGT.-- The Red Pen of Doom 21:32, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - their bound to have lots of news happening around them over the next year, so it'll just end up gettign created again.

Speedy Keep per Haipa Doragon. Nominator could have waited a few days/weeks to allow this to grow. Pyrrhus16 21:35, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep - The references are already been cited and it is hardly an hour after the winner has been announced, for one thing the media seem to be jumping on the fact they won over Susan Boyle. The references are being cited really quick and adding to it's notabality.Raintheone (talk) 21:48, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
