List of Lorde performances

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not encyclopedic enough to warrant its own article. Perhaps information could be worked into the Pure Heroine article or Lorde's main article. Save-Me-Oprah (talk) 10:51, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Can I ask you to clarify: is your issue its lack of encyclopedic data, its notability or do you believe it is a content fork? I am not sure which of the three you are asserting. Adabow (talk) 10:57, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Sorry just spotted - there does not seem to be anything that makes her performances notable on there own. There are also only a few and these could just as easily be included as a paragraph in the Lorde page NealeFamily (talk) 00:22, 25 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete. My apologies to those involved in the article, but I feel that this crosses into the what Wikipedia is not territory (directory, indiscriminate collection of information, etc). In a couple of years, there could be literally hundreds of performances, ranging from impromptu performances at private events right up to festival headlinings. While lists of releases and lists of tours are worthy of inclusion, I do not feel that lists of performances would be. J Milburn (talk) 12:38, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * I have removed the "one-off concerts" section. I only added it after seeing the similar section at List of Madonna concert tours, but you're right that they are WP:NOT-type data. I don't mean to argue WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS, but see also Category:Lists of concert tours, where consensus seems to be that these sorts of lists are useful. Adabow (talk) 06:47, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree that a list of concert tours is potentially acceptable/useful, but that's a very different thing from a list of performances, and there'd be no need for a separate list article in Lorde's case until she has embarked on many more tours. J Milburn (talk) 11:38, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
