Hair Zone Mall Tour

Non notable concert tour. This was a shopping mall tour. Tenacious D Fan (talk) 23:11, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The tour by Spears was a one time event and doesn't merit a separate Wikipedia article. Artene50 (talk) 04:25, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep. That it was a shopping mall tour makes it more interesting, different, and notable rather than less. A lot could be written about this: what demographics did she go after in picking the malls, did she play during the day or night, did she draw audiences in advance or just passers-by in the mall, did she really sing or just lip-synch, how elaborate was the stage and production values, did the tour improve her reputation or harm it, etc etc. Wasted Time R (talk) 13:24, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are there sources for any of that? Note 'interesting' is not a criteria for notability. --neon white talk 20:10, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see you point, but wouldn't it be better to have this discussion on …Baby One More Time article? Tenacious D Fan (talk) 13:57, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, because tours and albums are different things. Spears's tours are often elaborate productions that are artistic works of their own (like musical theater), even if they are staged after an album release. And some Spears tours don't neatly coincide with albums at all, like this one and Crazy 2K Tour. Wasted Time R (talk) 14:04, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Merge any relevant information into the album article. Blaxthos ( t / c ) 00:32, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into …Baby One More Time Dalejenkins | 18:54, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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

Merge either into …Baby One More Time or better still, Britney_Spears#Childhood_and_discovery, where some of her early, pre-album tours are already mentioned. Lack of sources or notability for it's own article. Esradekan Gibb ^"Talk" 08:00, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as above. If this were the first of its kind, it would be notable, but the article itself says it is not, and therefore it is not notable. --Falcon Darkstar Kirtaran (talk) 12:49, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to Britney Spears - no claim to be notable. In fact many claims to not be. most tours are not notable, I offer to redirect due to this essay --T-rex 04:39, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Clear Merge and Redirect, clearly not a particularly notable (or a very minor tour)--JForget 22:43, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
