- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was delete. This is a weak delete, but the arguments made for deletion were strong enough that I don't think this should be eligible for undeletion at WP:REFUND. I will consider undeleting it myself if anyone can find new sources that pass WP:RS, however. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 05:46, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Contested prod. Although the article has been greatly expanded since prodding, the issue that led to prodding hasn't been resolved. No evidence of significant third-party coverage is shown in the article, there is no mention of critical reception, and I can't find any non-primary sources about this play on Google News archives.

- Comment. I've dug and found a few things, but so far I'm a little concerned over the limited sources I'm finding. Most of these are local community-type newspapers and student magazines. I am finding some stuff, but I'm not entirely satisfied with all of this to say "totally keep", but then I'm extremely picky at times. I did remove a lot of stuff from the article, as much of what was added tended to talk about the past accomplishments of some of the cast members and as notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, I went ahead and removed it. I did find mention of the performance on a local news station (for that area), but the YT video was uploaded by the musical, so using that as a source isn't an option.

- Delete or merge to Ching Hai very selectively. This one-off charity event / vanity project / publicity stunt does not have sufficient coverage from independent reliable sources to satisfy WP:GNG, nor does it qualify under any other standard. The sources offered are a couple of community papers (Los Cerritos Community Newspaper, Crescent Valley Weekly), an online USC magazine (Asia Pacific Arts), a couple of press release -type mentions (my.entertainment.yahoo.com, Theater Mania), some non-independent pieces in advertising/marketing enterprises (Footlights, stagebill.com), and a lengthy blog post on LA Weekly's website, the last of which is probably the most useful. These, plus the local TV news item that Tokyogir79 mentioned, are not sufficient to warrant a WP entry. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 13:38, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
