The Best Damn Tour[edit]

This tour, by Avril Lavigne in support of her The Best Damn Thing album, is scheduled to begin in March 2008. No sources indicating notability appear on the page, which also fails WP:NOT#CRYSTAL and WP:NOT#DIRECTORY since it is mostly a list of venues and dates.

Keep: This article has the link to the tour dates on Avril Lavigne's official website; they are confirmed events (not unverifiable speculation), therefore passing WP:NOT#CRYSTAL. Also, WP:NOT#DIRECTORY is being misused in your argument; the list of venues and dates is integral to the article as it is the tour. Something X (talk) 01:35, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How about the notability issue? Remember that "notability is not inherited". AnteaterZot (talk) 01:37, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anteater, you're trolling right now, as far as I'm concerned. You copied the deletion reason from your Girls Aloud Tangled Up AfD and replaced Girls Aloud with Avril Lavigne. Look at Avril's other tour pages - or any tour pages for that matter. Please, just stop being a troll. Something X (talk) 01:50, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please remember to assume good faith and not make personal attacks. Comment on content not the contributor. --Neon white (talk) 04:37, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry that I think Wikipedia is not the place for future tours to be listed. I feel it violates Wikipedia policies, and borders on spam. AnteaterZot (talk) 01:54, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It does not violate Wikipedia policies. Please use common sense. Something X (talk) 01:55, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge - per JForget. jj137 ♠ Talk 04:22, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - pre WP:NOT#DIRECTORY, it's just not encyclopedic content. --Neon white (talk) 04:35, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - While tours can be notable events, this one has not established notability. There is no third party verification. Quoting from WP:V: If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it. LonelyBeacon (talk) 06:09, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
