Delete The article only has one source, which is a primary (YouTube video) source. Does not meet criterion for Notability as there seem to be no third party sources, much less significant coverage. The subject already has inclusion in the Team_StarKid article (the artists apparently creating the work). The rational by the article's author is that the subject is not notable now, but may be notable later. "Notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources" -Aaron Booth (talk) 17:52, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As quoted above, it is not notable now, but will definitely be notable in less than three weeks time. I have also said on the article's talkpage that by keeping the article, we prevent the future re-creation by over-exuberant fans with little wiki experience. A minor argument would be that the other four 'StarKid' musicals have pages, so HMB should have one too. Right now, I have just found much more significant coverage in the form of a Skype interview with exclusive preview footage here], which I will try to incorporate once I find my headphones.

  • Query First of all, what's the minimum time for discussion before deletion?
  • Comment Due to an incident involving a cat and my headphones, I'm afraid I can't add info from that source. Having now read WP:NOTCRYSTALBALL, I can see that it may not be an appropriate article yet. However, I feel that deleting it at this stage is bordering on pointless, as it will likely be recreated in a two weeks time when the reviews start appearing. I still feel it should be kept, but I can't argue with the policy. Eladkse (talk) 19:31, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
