[edit] Star Awards
Looks like an award show run by a TV broadcaster for people who work for that same company. Google hardly returns anything once you've filtered out the company's own webpages (what remains are news snippets and similar).
I am also nominating the following: Star Awards 1995, Star Awards 1997, Star Awards 1998, Star Awards 1999, Star Awards 2000, and Star Awards 2003 because they redirect to Star Awards. And Star Awards 2001, Star Awards 2002, Star Awards 2004, Star Awards 2005, and Star Awards 2006 because they contain a subset of the information in Star Awards. --Lijnema 15:53, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Star Awards has an article for the fact that it is the most prominent award in the Singaporean mass entertainment arena. That it is basically a "self-rewarding" award does little to dent its avid following and the buzz it generates amongst the masses. May I just point out that "Star Awards" itself may not garner plenty of sources online, because it is actually the English name of an award for Chinese-language productions.--Huaiwei 16:23, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep all except orphaned redirects. Notable event in the country. Google in English returns more than 50,000 hits including many press reports, Googling the Chinese title returns over 79,000 hits. --Vsion 16:38, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep as above, and it is a rather huge event in Singapore.le petit vagabond 18:22, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep the main article if it is actually a major event. However, the statistics tables should be dropped per WP:NOT. DB (talk) 18:45, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete the subarticles (individual years). They are just redirects to the main article. If info is added about individual years, it can all go in the main article. DB (talk) 18:48, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep as major Singapore award event by dominant Singapore media company but delete all the subarticles as per DB above. There's gotta be a better, more visually friendly way of arranging data than the current charts too, but I'll leave that the article editors Bwithh 19:50, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep main. I see no problem with the redirects, especially if there's a possibility of more detailed articles down the line. 23skidoo 20:00, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, Star Awards is like the Emmy of Singapore. It is the highest category of television awards in the country, and has been a very popular event in the Chinese television scene. There are more hits in Chinese as the name is in Chinese not English. --Terence Ong (C | R) 04:10, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. I still think (if the final verdict is keep, which is looks like now) that it at least needs some external sources, and either move all results to the main, or the individual years, seems to be doule in some places now. --Lijnema
- Comment I concur that the current presentation does look unweldy, and I appeal for ideas on how to better present the facts. Keeping individual articles for each year's awards was one way to keep the information sanely manageable, so perhaps we may wish to keep the non-redirect ones for now.--Huaiwei 15:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. The awards seem well-known enough to warrant this article. The individual articles per year may be unneccessary, but any important information could be included in the main article. S-man64 12:21, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Terence Ong and others, WP:BIAS would apply here as well I would think. RFerreira 05:34, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
