List of Austin City Limits performers

Indiscriminate, unsourced, and loooooooooong list of everyone who's ever performed on Austin City Limits. Not a source in sight, no real notability in relation to the series (literally thousands of performers). Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Chirps•Clams•Chowder)} 23:37, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete In each article, it already probably covers these appearances. May I ask, did you try to prod this?

- Comment I'm not sure whether you asked this question because you believed TenPoundHammer should have or shouldn't have prod-ed. However my view is that prod-ing any article that's had a dozen or more editors, as this one has, is an abuse of that process. Prod is for uncontroversial deletes: the deletion of articles which multiple people have worked on should always be considered controversial. AndyJones (talk) 12:22, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep A potentially useful list, being long or potentially so is not a valid reason for deletion. The series is notable, the artists are notable and their appearances on the show are notable. As for unsourced, the external link [1] at the end of the page, to the ACL site itsself, sources the article almost fully and reliably. Russeasby (talk) 00:06, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep while the list strikes me as a list for it's own sake, I have to assume that it's useful for someone and as Russeasby says the fact that it is a long list isn't a reason for deletion. --

Keep. All we have to do is to make a table.--Freewayguy ^{Call? Fish} 23:56, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
