Without lack of proper references that provide in-depth discussion of the topic of the article, this is nothing but a list of data--not totally indiscriminate in one way since they're all by the same artist, but indiscriminate nonetheless in the sense that no rationale is provided beyond the mere fact of these events having taken place.

Comment. We keep getting these articles (which are usually poor) brought here, but the thing is...tours by major artists do receive lots of coverage in reliable sources. For example a quick GNews search found USA Today: "Norah Jones opens tour with a twang", Reuters: "Norah Jones announces spring tour", Hartford Courant: "NORAH JONES MIXES IT UP ; NEW TOUR OFFERS SOME FRESH TAKES; MUSIC REVIEW", Chicago Tribune: "Norah Jones' tour stops at Tweeter Center on Sept. 12", Asbury Park Press: "Norah Jones' spring tour to make stops in New York and Atlantic City", omaha.com: "All new material in Jones' show", Today.com: "The road ‘feels like home’ to Norah Jones", MTV: "Norah Jones Releases New Songs On DVD, Plans Tour", The Hour: "Norah Jones launches tour in CT". So there are sources available, and it isn't really 'indiscriminate' information, just excessive. The questions really are whether this is appropriate detail for an encyclopedia, whether it can be reliably sourced, and how we should cover such concert tours. I doubt that the set lists can be reliably sourced here, which leaves a list of tours with start and end dates, claimed box office figures, and two with a list of shows. In this case the sourceable content could be summarized in the prose of the Norah Jones article, perhaps with a basic list of tours in a separate section of that article. --Michig (talk) 09:26, 10 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Just to be clear, there is already a summary of jones' tours at Norah Jones#Tours. In the absence of any sourced information here beyond one attendance figure and the date of one show this could be redirected there. --Michig (talk) 18:36, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/Redirect Redirect to Norah Jones#Tours and any sourced info can be merged with the individual tour articles listed in the redirected section/article. These unsourced set lists etc. are the stuff of fan sites not an encyclopedia.-- — Keithbob • Talk • 23:46, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
