Music as a Weapon Tour

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non notable concert tours that fails to establish notability as per WP:MUSIC or WP:GNG. Where references are provided, they either only publicise the tour dates or do not provided "significant coverage" of the tour itself to warrant inclusion.

 * Keep Music as a Weapon Tour It's Disturbed's own festival tour with plenty of significant coverage. The article is just poorly written at this moment and may look non-notable, but based on the number of Gnews hits, I'd say it probably is. Delete Asylum Tour This is superfluous to Uproar Festival and what may become Taste of Chaos 2010. It's also not technically "The Asylum Tour," but rather two festivals Disturbed is participating in after the release of Asylum. Delete Indestructible Tour Zero third-party coverage outside of lists of tour dates. Fezmar9 (talk) 15:52, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Keep Asylum Tour – The band are not only performing at festivals on this tour; the band are playing their own shows and the tour will continue in to 2011. It is a major tour by a band who just had their fourth consecutive number one album on the Billboard 200. I expect further coverage of the tour as it progresses.  Keep Indestructible Tour – For the same reason. I expect to find additional coverage to add to the article. (Freak.scenery (talk) 01:55, 7 September 2010 (UTC))
 * Expect to find is not what we are looking for. The article, as with the vast majority of tours, does not gain significant coverage in reliable sources and thus fails WP:GNG. I find it highly unlikely that sufficient significant third party coverage will be found to establish notability as per WP:GNG. If such notability is established, then the article can be recreated.

 Although there are two Keep votes, concerns on notability have apparently still not been met. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,   ♪ ♫ Wifione ♫ ♪    ―Œ  ♣Łeave Ξ мessage♣  02:57, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment The use of the word "vote" above is interesting... No evidence has been provided to establish the required notability, and so these "votes" are simply opinions, and until notability is established, they mean little. The fact that additional references are expected to be found suggests that such references required to establish notability as per WP:GNG do not currently exist.

 * Notability is established from sources here, here, here, here, here and here. (Freak.scenery (talk) 00:57, 15 September 2010 (UTC))
