List of Meredith Music Festival lineups by year

This does not meet any of our inclusion guidelines for stand-alone lists.


 * WP:LISTN - this is not covered significantly by reliable sources independent of the subject
 * WP:LISTPURP - this list is not a valuable information source, it does not assist in navigation (note that many of the artists don't even have a Wikipedia article) and it does not aid in development of the encyclopaedia
 * WP:SALAT - I don't believe that this list meets the principles outlined here
 * WP:NOTMIRROR - Wikipedia strongly discourages articles that are just mirrors of the primary source Spiderone  12:01, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect to Meredith Music Festival, easily incorporated there and unquestionably relevant. That page's editors can determine whether it's appropriate detail or should be trimmed. So there's absolutely no reason to go through a deletion analysis or process. This is true of so many AFDs we see for subpages or subtopics like this, people really need to be considering WP:ATD and WP:BEFORE. postdlf (talk) 16:32, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * A merge was suggested by another user on the article's talk page but the idea didn't really take off. These sorts of articles have been brought to AfD before and they have resulted in delete, delete, delete and redirect. A lot of those didn't have much participation so these lists still lack consensus as to whether they can be notable. Spiderone  20:25, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * It's really a SPLIT question in my view, and where the original article is so small as here that it can be merged so easily there's no need for a split. So separate notability (whatever that even means for such a subtopic) is moot. postdlf (talk) 20:46, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree, this page can be merged with the Meredith Music Festival page.Clackwork (talk) 22:35, 4 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - Merging this list to the festival's article would merely change the location of a list that is unnecessary in the first place. The present list article is entirely dependent on the festival's own website (which by the way is a violation of WP:PRIMARY), and that site merely offers simple lists of acts who played there. This is not a reason to reproduce the same lists in Wikipedia with no additional commentary or analysis, and that is true if the list is its own article or part of the festival article. No matter where it appears, the list remains non-notable for the reasons spelled out quite nicely by the nominator, and simply playing at the festival is not a notable fact that has been reported upon by any reliable media. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 23:00, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Notability requires secondary sourcing, but there's no such requirement for all content within an article about a notable topic, and certainly no absolute prohibition on using primary sources. Whether it should remain in Meredith Music Festival (a page none of us have edited or discussed outside of this AFD) should be addressed through normal editing and discussion. I doubt also that a notable festival received no coverage of who was playing at that festival, but I also think that's not relevant here. postdlf (talk) 00:42, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Meredith Music Festival. This is an obvious alternative to deletion which must be considered first before just deleting the page. Deus et lex (talk) 07:29, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Meredith Music Festival where it is valid content in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 00:26, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
