Hi! I'm nominating this because I believe it meets the GT criteria. Crystal Clear x3 00:05, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - There needs to be a book created for this topic. GamerPro64 16:53, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. Should include HIStory World Tour, which is not a GA. (The book has been created by now.) Ucucha 12:40, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Support (I don't know if the tour is obligatory, quite a few of the album GTs don't have them, just the songs/singles) igordebraga ≠ 02:19, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Unfortunate oppose. The tour is needed, see Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Breakout/archive1 (does not include the tour); Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/In the Zone/archive1, Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Breakout/archive2, and Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Hard Candy (Madonna album)/archive1 includes its respective tours. ۞ Tbhotch^™ & (ↄ), Problems with my English? 01:29, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then again, Animal (promoted just this year...), Rock Steady, and the Coldplay GTs don't feature the tours. igordebraga ≠ 04:53, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  Excepting Animal, which was not promoted by a tour when its GTC was promoted, tours were not needed at the time when No Doubt/Colplay GTCs were promoted 2 years ago. If you have a problem with them, go and open their respective GT removals. ۞ Tbhotch^™ & (ↄ), Problems with my English? 19:48, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment several of these articles have many deadlinks. See the book report. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 01:04, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Still lots of deadlinks in those articles. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 02:52, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose Tour should be included, as well as all the songs on the album. Adabow (talk · contribs) 08:02, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Regretful oppose, I kinda started the tradition of inclusion of tour articles, so well, ya HIStory Tour needs to be included. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 09:34, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Support I see tour articles as optional for articles about albums. Nice to have, but in no way critical. Courcelles 02:13, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Tour aside, it doesn't make sense to promote a greatest hits album FT/GT without the hits. This has been discussed at Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Greatest Hits: My Prerogative/archive1 and Wikipedia:Featured topic removal candidates/Celebration (Madonna album)/archive1.

• There were also video collections released, which needs to be GA and part of the GT. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 12:57, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Closed with no consensus to promote. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 03:30, 7 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
