Michael Jackson impersonator

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

WP:OR, WP:FANPAGE. This seems like an answer to Elvis impersonator, but unlike Elvis impersonator there is nothing like Michael Jackson impersonator that can be called notable. This section has cited 4 sources none of them use the term "jackson impersonator" or even "impersonator". Other 2 sections have no sources that mention the required terms, misrepresenting "influence" as "impersonator" would make Michael Jackson a James Brown impersonator. Violation of WP:COPYVIO can be found on this section from
 * 4th cites an 8 year old event where Madonna hired a Jackson impersonator, and the last section has only 3/8 notable names, rest of the 5 will need to be removed per WP:NLIST. After all this cleanup, the article would be barely 2 or 3 sentences and we can find same amount of "impersonation" for just any artist that has sold millions of records. Thus delete.

* KEEP Michael Jackson has the most large amount of impersonators that anyone has ever seen for an artist ever,they are all from different parts of the world,with different languages and cultures but they are all bonded by the desire to keep the legacy of their idol alive. Some do shows where other fans can go and have a good time remembering about Michael's music and legacy,some only show their talent on YouTube and do a few of shows in clubs and etc or they perform in the streets,there are even little kids that impersonate him and we can see them in talent shows too sometimes.MariiMariiii (talk) 10:54, 19 July 2017 (UTC) Blocked for sockpuppetry

 * Redirect to Impersonator. I need to agree that is not a "formal term" or haven't a notability in media like an Presley impersonator. Chrishonduras  ( Diskussion ) 23:41, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
