2 weeks old opinionpiece, fails WP:NSUSTAINED by definition. Not good per WP:EVENTCRIT either, though perhaps WP:NBOOK can be seen as more relevant. Redirect/Merge to ~~Gaylor~~ Swifties#Gaylor. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 23:29, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You probably meant to suggest Swifties#Gaylor as the redirect target. Jfire (talk) 00:23, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Correct and thanks. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:26, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Per rationale in nomination. Way too soon to determine if this is a notable work of journalism and no reason to think it’s inevitable. 108.41.198.35 (talk) 00:45, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect/Merge per nom. Georgethedragonslayer (talk) 09:46, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect/Merge to Swifties#Gaylor. This is a technical vote just to help build consensus, and a merge is not entirely necessary because the NYT article is already mentioned there sufficiently. The nominator and previous voters have argued correctly and I agree, especially per WP:EVENTCRIT. Meanwhile, look at what Swiftyism has become: obsessive articles criticizing obsessive journalists reporting on obsessive fans. Keep us out of it. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:07, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect/Merge to Swifties#Gaylor, although I think the scholarship from the page should remain and be expanded. In the coming years I expect there will be more academic scholarship on the Gaylor community that more firmly delineates it as a conspiracy theory separate from the Swiftie community but I don't think we are there just yet. It took quite some time for Larrie scholarship to start appearing after the buzz from it had died down.

Redirect to Swifties#Gaylor as a WP:SUSTAINED fail. I think the coverage there is satisfactory to the point that a merge isn't really necessary. All the best, Schminnte^{[talk to me]} 16:43, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
