Delete Stub article about a performance tour featuring little information about the tour, including dates and cities. Does not seem to be important enough to warrant its own article.--Donaldduckedits (talk) 04:00, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Strong keep: Did you even search for possible sources or assess secondary coverage? So far, your argument for deletion is 1) the article is a stub and 2) the subject "does not seem to be important enough". Neither are valid reasons for deletion. The tour has run for four years and there are plenty of sources confirming specific dates and reviewing specific performances. ---Another Believer (Talk) 04:08, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, on the surface this might seem unlikely but these tours by a cast of notable people, is essentially like a rock tour. Every stop gets at least a handful of media write-ups, and that it has repeated suggests they’re also getting reviews which can fill out an entire reception section.This needs work but WP:DINC.

- Keep per WP:BEFORE step D. There's a lot of routine coverage because it's a touring show, but there's significant coverage mixed in there as well. I think it satisfies the WP:GNG.
- Miami New Times (December 2019) - substantial coverage of lineup and historical context of the show.
- Church Militant (December 2019) - prominent Christian nationalist website covers the details of the performance itself and responds exactly as you'd expect
- Columbia Chronicle (November 2019) - student newspaper writer provides review and critical commentary on the show with coverage of the themes and artistic choices behind them
- Slate (February 2018) - contains coverage of controversies surrounding the 2016 tour and places that controversy in wider context
- The Georgia Voice (December 2017) - covers the tour as a whole and places it in historical context
- Richmond Times-Dispatch (November 2017) - in 2017 the primary daily newspaper of Richmond, Virginia found it significant enough to send a reporter to interview one of the headliners
- Coverage in multiple regions, from multiple perspectives, across multiple tours suggests this is notable. — Wug·a·po·des 05:33, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, Donaldduckedits sorry buddy but this is a lazy delete nomination. A quick search shows there is relevant coverage. Before nominating an article for deletion, you have a responsibility to search for sources first per the AFD process. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 09:47, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per the sources identified by Wugapodes. — Toughpigs (talk) 14:00, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. WP:BEFORE does not seem to have been done. A simple Google search yields numerous RS that can be used to expand the article, as Wugapodes showed above with several good examples. Nom rationale is not WP:PAG-based, either. Armadillopteryxtalk 14:55, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
