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 soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. This is a soft delete so if reliable sources become available with future success, this article can be restored. I don't think Draftifying is a good idea with a 16 year old article that is unlikely to receive any attention and be deleted in 6 months. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:45, 17 August 2022 (UTC) reply

I struggled to find reliable secondary sources that discuss the subject. Only content the subject has written.

• Comment The subject might be notable by the comment above (plays being reviewed? similar to authors' notability criteria? but the page needs work to establish criteria of notability. Maybe draftify the page? JamesKH76 ( talk) 08:30, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
