Essay on Dusty Springfield which does not appear to add anything significant to an already good article about her. Delete per no OR. Deadly∀ssassin 04:16, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Trim, merge, and anchor-redirect any reliably sourced content to Dusty Springfield#Legacy. That section could afford a little more content, and this is a plausible search string and redirection will take readers to exactly where the information is. This is not to be interpreted as a keep, per the essay-like content, the duplication (sans sources) of much of the information in the Dusty Springfield article, and the WP:original research/synthesis concerns (although I can see the possibility of a WP:HEYMANN-like improvement if someone is willing to put effort in to restructure this as a valid sub-article of Dusty Springfield and reliably source the content). -- saberwyn 05:48, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge a substantially smaller and NPOV version to Dusty Springfield#Legacy. There's enough here to enhance that article, but this topic is undue weight for a separate article. --Dhartung | Talk 06:33, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This seems more like a Dusty Springfield Trivia section than an article. Virtually nothing is cited. First sentence indicates this thing is lifted from a larger work. Existing Dusty article is very solid and exhaustively cited; trying to merge that article with this uncited list just because some list entries are interesting could weaken the existing article, and hardly seems worth the effort.

- Merge. The trivia most definitely needs to be culled, but notable commentary certainly warrants mention. I also could anticipate the Heymann standard being met at some point, though the title is a little weighty as it stands, I'd suggest a word a bit less POV implicatory than "legacy".
