World Tourbulence (Dream Theater tour)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I prodded it under the following rationale which I believe is still valid: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (music) requirement". The article has only a single reference: the band fansite. This is a premier example of music-cruft, common particularly in the band tours articles, that infests Wikipedia in clear disregard of any notability guidelines. This kind of stuff belongs of the fansites or fan-wikias, not here. PS. The prod nomination was deleted by the article's creator without any explanation, a clear violation of the PROD procedure which requests that such a rationale is provided. And this was after User:Animalparty has warned the creator that this and similar articles have major notability problems, and suggested their merge (link). Sigh. A mass review of that article's creator articles may be in order, likely followed by a mass deletion proposal. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:55, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
