The article's subject appears to be notable, but the article as written is very far from meeting Wikipedia's content guidelines. It appears to be more of a fan writeup than an encyclopedia entry. It also appears to be almost entirely written by anonymous/IP editors. I'd suggest the article be heavily truncated, preserving little more than the lead section. Pete (talk) 05:40, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
- Strong KeepI disagree immensely with these sentiments. I do not think this article meets any criteria for deletion at all. Because someone has issues with certain parts of the article, is a very bad reason to recommend something for deletion. If there is a problem of it being more of a fan writeup, then there should be a neutrality marker, not a deletion marker. If this is the case, then people should band together to edit it better. However, this is not the case, and I feel that this is a well written and encyclopedic article, and I have no problems with the style. It is foolish and frivolous to me that this article about a famous Tony Award winning musical, which is not an attack page, or in a foreign language, or copyright violation. Maybe there is a copyright violation I am aware with, but otherwise, I find no basis for this article to be deleted at all. The reasons for nomination are based on things that should not lead to a deletion, and furthermore are not present in the article. 129.64.213.33 (talk) 06:47, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
- Comment deletion is not being proposed so it shouldn't be listed here. Yes, it needs to be severely pruned. Anyone can do it. Drawn Some (talk) 17:43, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
