Keep The second season of American Idol was its breakthrough year in terms of popularity, and its finalists received more attention at the time, and have lingered longer in terms of public interest, than those of most other seasons of the show. This graph of Google News Archive hits shows a peak of references the year she was a contestant, but an ongoing number of references in subsequent years as well.

Some editors shy away from investing time in articles that keep getting put up at AfD, thinking that sooner or later by random chance one of the attempts will succeed and whatever work they've done will be lost. In any case, WP:NOEFFORT suggests that lack of recent editing is not a valid reason for deletion. Wasted Time R (talk) 05:09, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
