Between the Beautifuls

Contested prod for an album to be released on January 29, 2008 Seems to fail notability. WP:CRYSTAL seems to apply. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 15:10, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep New album is officially announced with supporting tour. If it's still not notable thats fine, but I am not speculating. SeanGustafson (talk) 15:18, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

Delete: Unless better, reliable sources can be found. - Rjd0060 (talk) 01:37, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What better sources than the CBC and Chart, which is the primary Canadian music magazine, do you imagine could possibly exist? Bearcat 22:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added reference to CBC Radio program that played the first single from the album. The CBC is as reliable as it gets in Canada. SeanGustafson 17:11, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing in this article is attempting to crystal-ball; it's a purely factual summary of the confirmed details of an album that's going to be released in six weeks. That's a completely normal thing to have an article about — we do it all the time for announced albums by notable recording artists. There's a whole category of albums that haven't been released yet, in fact. WP:CRYSTAL prohibits speculation about the future; it does not prohibit a basic summary of the known facts about something that hasn't happened yet. Keep. Bearcat 22:05, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Very reliable sources. Not WP:CRYSTAL when details have already been announced and reported.DoubleBlue (Talk) 23:17, 2 December 2007 (UTC) P.S. I heard the first single, Piano Blink, last week on CBC Radio 1. DoubleBlue (Talk)[reply]
Chart and the CBC are reliable sources; it's unclear to me why this would even be in question. Keep. --Paul Erik 23:46, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. It's reliably sourced and for a well-known artist. Delete it now and it'll just need to be recreated in a short while, anyway. Shawn in Montreal 02:43, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep A well-sourced article about an announced forthcoming release by a notable recording artist. As Bearcat points out, there is no speculation here - WP:CRYSTAL does not apply. Victoriagirl 03:46, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
