Abdul has announced the tour has been cancelled. [1]Pillowdelight (talk) 01:52, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to the appropriate section in the artists "History" section. An announced and subsequently cancelled tour will likely still be worth a mention there, making it a plausible search term. Sergecross73 msg me 03:03, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: There are tens of cancelled concert tours on this site. Just because it was cancelled does not mean it isn't notable, therefore I don't think redirecting or deleting is necessary here. The subject is significantly covered in multiple independent reliable sources. dxneo (talk) 19:53, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm open to doing whatever, I did create the page. Although, I only added two refs to the page initially when I created it — my plan was to expand it by adding in reviews and the setlist. It did receive some coverage but I wouldn’t say it was significant. I'll add more due to the tour being cancelled. Pillowdelight (talk) 21:54, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No one has established notability to begin with though, so the bigger question would be, how does it pass WP:NTOUR? Does it? Sergecross73 msg me 01:35, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I mean it was announced by many Canadian presses. But majority of all of them stated the same information. Pillowdelight (talk) 21:29, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sergecross73 and Pillowdelight, doesn't that meet WP:NTOUR? It was covered in multiple independent reliable sources when it was announced and when it was cancelled. Sources include Billboard and Rolling Stone just to mention a few. Just that the editors/creator did not introduce such references to the article and I don't know why. dxneo (talk) 22:07, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's the Sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability part of NTOURS that no one has proven yet. Sergecross73 msg me 22:17, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well the tour technically didn't happen. I would rather suggest just deleting the page altogether, the tour was merely just a tour throughout Canada, Abdul wasn't promoting any sort of album nor single on it. So it really isn't sufficient enough. Pillowdelight (talk) 23:23, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, that's why I'm sticking with my redirect stance. Sergecross73 msg me 00:23, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't even bother redirecting it either, I would say just delete it. Pillowdelight (talk) 01:22, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bro is definitely disappointed that your was cancelled 😅 I just thought deletion wasn't worth it but okay. dxneo (talk) 01:36, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not refer to me as "Bro". I'm a fan of Miss Abdul but I’m not sure what that has anything to do with keeping the page up. You seem very adamant on keeping the page but have failed to expand the article in any shape or form. Pillowdelight (talk) 02:51, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: So, is the suggestion a Redirect to Paula Abdul#Tours and residencies?

Redirect to Paula Abdul#Tours and residencies. Doesn't meet the notability guideline since it doesn't have sustained coverage, but it's still a potential search term. hinnk (talk) 03:24, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Paula Abdul#Tours and residencies per hinnk; if the tour is relaunched restoration is quite easy to do and the page history will allow rebuilding of the article in that case with the existing sources. Nate • (chatter) 20:19, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
