Unsourced content may be challenged or removed per Wikipedia:Content removal and Wikipedia:Verifiability/Removal of Unsourced Material.

- Mesoutopia, I'm glad you opened this but as far as I am concerned we should just yank this plus sign immediately: the article is terrible, and it was terrible already when it was "reviewed". Drmies (talk) 15:47, 25 March 2025 (UTC)
- I couldn't agree more, but I don't think I have the authority to do that. Can you? In my opinion the subject isn't notable enough for an article in the first place. Mesoutopia (talk) 08:36, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, this article is currently seriously below GA standards. Aside from the serious cleanup tags which need addressing, there are at a minimum also issues with encyclopedic tone (e.g.
the last performer to grace its stage
;the buzz culminating in a promo tour in England
) and bullet-point lists which should be rewritten as prose (e.g. the §Public speaking and §Charity and advocacy sections). Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 12:00, 27 March 2025 (UTC) - Delist, unless someone steps forward to work on it. Far too much uncited, including lengthy claims about an unreleased record (see WP:DUEWEIGHT as well as the obvious questions about how we can be so precise about a record that doesn't exist).
