 * Keep. The nominated version of this article is indeed longer than it should be and contains a considerable volume of promotional prose, mostly added by a brand new editor . I note that this new editor received no advisories or warnings about our editing policies before this AfD was filed, and no notice of the AfD.  (I've taken care of that. )  Nonetheless, this is a highly notable entertainment industry charity with extensive coverage in reliable sources; for evidence, see the 740 news articles at HighBeam Research  and the 1,530 New York Times hits turned up by a Google search.   I suggest that we revert to the 16 August 2013 version of the article  and try again. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:05, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep: J 1982 (talk) 17:42, 16 August 2014 (UTC) As above.
 * Keep This project is covered in Playbill. It is not covered well anywhere that I see, which is a shame, and in the update to the article only self-published material is cited. I think the least harm would be done by reverting it back to the version suggested above. If the article is to be developed then either information could be deleted from or added to that version. The new content does not come from sources which meet WP:RS standards. That content is bad, but deletion of the article is not the best response.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)  18:41, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is a well-known, major organization that raises more than 10 million dollars per year. Gccwang (talk) 01:23, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
