Diana Vickers

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Exactly the same reasoning as at Articles for deletion/JLS (X Factor Group) (closed as redir): Creation of a standalone article for Diana Vickers is both premature and unneccessary: premature because she is currently only known for her involvement in the X Factor and WP:BIO1E applies, and unneccessary because a bio already exists at List_of_The_X_Factor_finalists_(UK_series_5). If she gains independent notability then an article would be appropriate but to assume she will before the event violates WP:CRYSTAL. Ros0709 (talk) 07:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Redirect With JLS being closed as a redirect, I don't see why Vickers should be treated any differently. - Mgm|(talk) 08:53, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Redirect like JLS Sceptre (talk) 11:57, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Redirect since JLS arnt yet notable, it seems silly to have an article for Diana. Also, its a year before she can release anything anyway! JS (chat) 13:35, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Not if she sines with Sony, and we have a decent source saying they intend to sign. However, I agree that, until she actually does, there probably isn't a need for the article. It can easily be resurrected later. J Milburn (talk) 17:01, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

 * This article should be kept as Sony BMG have signed her, and it would save future work into recreating this article as it is already created it would be common sense to keep it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pic Editor96 (talk • contribs) 21:38, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think its fairly safe to assume that pretty soon a page for Vickers is going to be necessary because Simon Cowell has become involved. If Vickers has been signed by him (which there are sources saying) then it's only a matter of time before the page expands to one worth keeping. I also agree that deleting it would just create more hassle for someone to recreate the page later on, so why not just leave it as it is and save time later?.

 * Comment - Then it would shorly be better to redirect the article to the information thats available at List_of_The_X_Factor_finalists_(UK_series_5) and just undo the redirect once some firm notability has been established? JS (chat) 22:51, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sigh. I know. Redirect to Eoghan Quigg. --➨ Candlewicke :) Sign/Talk 09:06, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Redirect JS's latest proposal is the way to go. -- Smjg (talk) 23:21, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
