Hot Space Tour

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

Non-notable tour. Article consists only of a setlist and list of dates. Fails WP:NOTINHERITED Rwiggum  (Talk /Contrib ) 14:45, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Tour generated substantial press coverage at the time, and should be able to meet the general notability guideline with ease if one looks in a suitable place (i.e., contemporary newspapers and music magazines). JulesH (talk) 20:41, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Could you please provide some of that coverage? And to be notable, the tour must be notable on its OWN, completely regardless of what band it was for, because notability cannot be inherited from another subject. The subject of the article must be notable in its own right, and nothing seems to suggest that here. Rwiggum  (Talk /Contrib ) 21:02, 6 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete, a non-notable tour that fails to satisfy the general notability guideline with significant coverage in reliable, third-party, sources. Just an indiscriminate collection of fancruft.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 00:56, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: trivial coverage, non-notable. JamesBurns (talk) 02:26, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: nothing inherently notable about this tour, a list of dates without explanation or rationale. A-Kartoffel (talk) 03:11, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Tour was reviewed in the Washington Post, covered in the Los Angeles Times, and is notable for being the last tour in the U.S. with Freddie Mercury (The Miami Herald). A film of a concert on this tour was reviewed in The Bergen Record. Until you've gone through every contemporary issue of Billboard (magazine), Rolling Stone, NME, and every city newspaper from the venues in which they performed and can tell me that they didn't say anything significantly about this tour, I don't believe for a second that what User:JulesH says is not true. Thanks to FUTON bias, you shouldn't expect to find the text of many of these publications from 1982 in a Google search. DHowell (talk) 22:09, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - trivial, non-notable coverage includes The Washington Post and there's sure more out there, as the band was at the height of popularity at that time. -- Avant-garde a clue - hexa Chord 2  22:16, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
