The result was speedy close Per WP:SNOW and WP:IAR, though the article is notable. Non-admin closure. ApprenticeFan talk contribs 04:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC) reply
Delete. After Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alexis Grace (2nd nomination) saw a “delete” outcome, I feel that the time has come to determine which of the American Idol contestants truly deserve their own articles. WP:NOTINHERITED tells us that just because somebody appeared on American Idol, it doesn’t make them notable and worthy of an article. This fails WP:MUSIC and WP:BIO. They’ve done nothing worthy of note since they appeared on American Idol. DJ 11:50, 28 July 2009 (UTC) reply
This sort of mass nomination is unproductive because it leads to people voting based on "I like it"/"I don't like it" since no one can reasonably be expected to properly research 38 articles of the same nature in a week. (Indeed this has already begun to happen.) Since the results of these AfDs are likely to be influenced by voting rather than a proper discussion, they should all be closed with no prejudice against reopening a few at a time after a good faith attempt to determine notability has been made. -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 22:41, 28 July 2009 (UTC) reply
