Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Idol Gives Back (2nd nomination)
American Idol is a redolent heap of flaming suck, but there is no question whatsoever that this particular segment meets the GNG going away, and as such, other subordinate notability criteria or style guidelines are irrelevant.  Frankly, I don't know what the nom was thinking with a claim that it fails , and strongly suggest that he reviews it to gain a clearer understanding of its provisions.  To quote: "A topic is presumed to merit an article if it meets the general notability guideline ..." To quote the GNG: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list."  I fancy that MTV News, TV Guide, MSNBC, Variety and CNN would constitute reliable sources in damn near anyone's book
