To EscapeX - please stop with your edit war of adding categories such as ''2009 concert tours''. '''<big><u>PLEASE</u></big>''' understand that this page is not about a tour. As has been explained to you several times before, a [[concert tour]] is by definition something that moves from city to city, and plays in different arenas. "This Is It" did not do that, therefore it is not a tour, and so we should not add categories saying that it is one. The same thing applies with your insistance on using a table layout with columns for City/Country/Venue. This makes no sense because there is only one location involved. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/86.175.220.114|86.175.220.114]] ([[User talk:86.175.220.114|talk]]) 18:22, 27 March 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Ticket prices ==

Not sure if this may is important but should we add the original ticket prices on the page? They were 50 /65 / 75 cheers :

== Date format ==


Should we use British date format on this article instead of American date format? Although Michael Jackson was American, this article is describing what was a planned London concert residency, and London is in the United Kingdom. Therefore, I vote we use British date format, as it was set to be a British concert residency and not an American one, even though Jackson himself was American.

Date format

[edit]

Should we use British date format on this article instead of American date format? Although Michael Jackson was American, this article is describing what was a planned London concert residency, and London is in the United Kingdom. Therefore, I vote we use British date format, as it was set to be a British concert residency and not an American one, even though Jackson himself was American. 77.98.210.44 (talk) 17:15, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
