Newland Musical

 * – ( View AfD View log )

non-notable musical, no reliable reviews, only claim to notability is inclusion in Edinburgh Fringe Festival (which has over 2500 shows). Google news search turns up nothing. Karl 334  ☞ TALK to ME ☜  22:10, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. I'm not sure why I bothered to clean up the article, given that there are no reliable sources for the show. The sources on the article were completely unusable, being non-notable blog reviews, notifications of past and present performances, and casting resumes. The entire article had such a strong promotional vibe to it that I'm going to nominate it for a speedy delete under G11.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 08:31, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment.I rolled back my edits since I wanted to let the article stay "as is" since my edits didn't help the article's notability any.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 08:34, 14 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete While I wish them luck, I don't feel the time has come yet for an article. It seems to only have been performed in showcase form so far, and the Fringe booking is a bit WP:CRYSTAL. The plot is no more ridiculous than other musicals (or operas - thinking of La Fanciulla del West which is also set in the American West), and if the music is good, it may well have a golden future. When the time comes, I'll welcome an article. But not yet - unless very much improved references are produced. Not for the cast or the creators - for the show. As it stands, there's one ticket sales site and one brief mention. Peridon (talk) 10:06, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
