Fiscal Wake-Up Tour

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (companies) requirement. News coverage seems to be mostly in passing (a bit of it is related to a documentary about the tour, but that's a different topic and the documentary doesn't appear very notable, either). I did fine on paragraph in a book and a bit longer interview  in another, but overall I think it seems to fall on the wrong side of notability. Perhaps someone else can find better sources? Otherwise I am afraid this was a non-notable event. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 08:35, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * There are certainly sources, back in the day in newspapers; in the  film I.O.U.S.A.: [They tour the country, teaching and testifying and generally playing Cassandra (in a suit and tie) in what they call the "Fiscal Wake Up Tour.;   and since in multiple books .  I'm wondering about an appropriate MERGE target.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:35, 20 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete: does not meet WP:NORG / WP:EVENT; significant RS coverage not found. Also fails WP:ADVOCACY with these statements (much of the article): "The combination of the "big three" entitlements (Medicare, Social Security, and Medicaid)...; The unfunded federal future obligations..." Etc. Wikipedia is not a place for soapboxing or promotion. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:19, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
 * The article simply lists the statements made by the speakers on the tour, and doesn't state them as facts. That isn't advocacy or promotion. --Michig (talk) 12:29, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
