Outline of performing arts

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Just a list of articles which are repeated in the Categories section Robynthehode (talk) 06:30, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Plainly it could be written up in more detail, but there is a solid topic here, and there is wide precedent for "outline of" articles. These are not redundant to categories as they present a synoptic page view divided by type, all visible at once (unlike even the best category hierarchy). The article needs writing up but editing is not a reason for AfD. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:40, 26 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep Plainly it could be written up in more detail, but there is a solid topic here, and there is wide precedent for "outline of" articles.  Scope of article will be expanded. per WP:PRESERVE. A highly likely search term.  No compliance with WP:Before, which should be the first hurdle before deletion.  Clearly is improvable per section (C).  Many sources at Google, Google books, Google scholar, and HighBeam Research.  Article can (and should) be improved; but that is no reason by itself to delete it.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 14:16, 29 October 2018 (UTC)
