Delete - per WP:IINFO. Magnolia677 (talk) 14:23, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Perhaps that the both of you can categorize the article under "low-importance" but that shouldn't be a valid reason for proposed deletion unless the article is grossly incomplete in the first place. Lemongirl942 was aware of my editing pattern and she has always believed that my edit was done out of good faith. I personally believe that it is perfectly alright to do so as long as I can provide reliable references in the first place. Even Arjayay whom I have spoken too previously have told me that the differences between WP:List and WP:IINFO are disputable among editors. Entertainment events at the SM Mall of Asia, Forum Copenhagen and List of events at the 3Arena are the inspirations behind the motivations for my edits. List of events at the Mercedes-Benz Arena wasn't created by me but the existence of those articles makes me wonder why some pages are proposed for deletion whereas Entertainment events at the SM Mall of Asia, List of events at the 3Arena and Entertainment events at The Forum are not considered for deletion. I believe that we try to avoid double-standardness here, isn't it? Xinyang Aliciabritney (talk) 15:13, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have just checked those pages, the page on List of events at the 3Arena was created by Handsopened on 29 November 2010 but there is no plan for deletion despite the article not citing any references in the first place, although I can try my best to improve the page by adding more citacions in the coming days. List of events at the 3Arena and Entertainment events at Perth Arena are of similar nature I believe, and therefore categorizing the article under "Low-Importance" would be a better move than a proposed deletion. Similarly, both articles on List of events at the Mercedes-Benz Arena and Entertainment events at the SM Mall of Asia were created by Tedwang94 and 2.30.251.152 respectively but there were no problems with their article page, so I was wondering if anyone of you have something against me although I don't wish to speculate further since the discussions are still on going.

I would tend to argue that those other pages are not appropriate for Wikipedia either, so not trying to impose a double standard! CapitalSasha ~ talk 18:29, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists#Appropriate topics for lists
The subject is not "too general or too broad in scope .... For example, a list of brand names" nor is it "too specific ... [like] The "list of one-eyed horse thieves from Montana""
WP:SALAT acknowledges that some editors see a conflict between lists and "What Wikipedia is not" and "feel that some topics are trivial, non-encyclopedic, or not related to human knowledge." However, this is not a "list of shades of colors of apple sauce"; people may wish to refer to this list to see the types of acts that are featured, or confirm whether, and/or when, a particular artist appeared.
As stated above, there are numerous such lists and the consensus to date appears to be to keep them, - Arjayay (talk) 16:13, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Provides encyclopedic content not available anywhere else. It is not an arbitrary list. It is well referenced. Aoziwe (talk) 12:36, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Good chronological and well referenced list. Hughesdarren (talk) 23:15, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Lots of "keep votes" but they generally seem to suffer from a case of WP:ITSUSEFUL. More comments needed. – Juliancolton | ^Talk 00:35, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
