3 Words: Tour

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unsourced and fails WP:MUSIC. Being a support act and performing at three festivals is not a solo tour.

 * Delete, fails WP:MUSIC, and none of it is Cheryl Cole's tour. Anemone  Projectors  19:13, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - presently I don't think this qualifies as notable enough to be an article; it can be covered in sufficient detail in the main article for the lady in question. HOWEVER, I'd like to state that as a rock music fan - where live shows are a more central focus of the fandom than pop music - support slots and festivals count as touring. And tons of tours include dates at such things. It just depends on if they become an event or not. Delete for now, put it back up if it blows up int o anything significant.

 * Keep The first night has already recieved some notable reports in the UK press (added to the article) with the Daily Mail arguing she upstaged the peas. This coverage will only continue as the tour does, especially in London this week. Furthermore I think Cole's appearance at the festivals is notable and received quite a lot of attention and press because of the unusual choice for V festival and as her first solo appearance. She is also headlining the stage she is on. For example:

 * But it's still the Black Eyed Peas' tour, not hers. Information relating to her support of their tour should be in the article on their tour. Also, note that sources simply establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability. Anemone  Projectors  18:54, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
