Hi everyone,
I noticed that the Lover Fest article was redirected after previous AfD discussions. I have gathered several sources related to Lover Fest that provide some details on its planning, cancellation, and connection to the Lover album. However, many of these sources focus on general information rather than offering the in-depth, independent coverage needed for a standalone article.
Given this, I would like to discuss whether we should consider reviving a separate Lover Fest article or instead incorporate the available information into the Lover album article. One option might be to create an expanded section on Lover Fest within the Lover album page that covers its planned festival-style format, the impact of its cancellation due to COVID-19, and its influence on subsequent projects.
I’m open to suggestions and guidance on how best to proceed. Should we draft a new article in the Articles for Creation space for further review, or would it be preferable to integrate the material into the existing Lover album article?
Thank you for your input and for considering this matter.

I've input my opinions at the latest AfD and my stance remains the same: keep "Lover Fest" as a redirect. I would appreciate other inputs/viewpoints. Ippantekina (talk) 02:34, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Yes, same. Jorge906 (talk) 07:26, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

This needs to be brought to others attention. Jorge Lobo Dos Santos (talk) 09:37, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
Jorge, this article has been to Articles for Deletion and redirected not once, not twice, but thrice (3 times). As you can see, especially given the lack of any interested parties in discussing the issue, the issue is evidently very tired.
In addition, you - yourself - mentioned these sources focus on  general information, not in-depth, independent coverage. To put it simply, we cannot have an article if we don't have that. mftp dan  oops  17:54, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
Yes, and especially because the tour did not even happen, there isn't really much to know about it anyway, not in the to warrant its own article I guess. Jorge Lobo Dos Santos (talk) 18:35, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
Okay, but to a degree, it at least warrants its own section in the album article. As some aspects are covered by reliable sources, but obviously not all, because the tour never happened so we'll never get an idea on what it was like. Jorge Lobo Dos Santos (talk) 18:23, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
Why do you think a separate section is necessary? Ippantekina (talk) 02:50, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
It is true that is ideally what you'd want for a tour in an album article. Or at least a subsection. I have no concept of how much information is available on the subject, however. My comments were only observation on previous comments and events. mftp dan  oops  15:19, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
@Ippantekina, I think a separate section is both justified and useful because—even though the sources we have offer only general coverage—I'd say the planning and cancellation of Lover Fest are distinctive enough to warrant their own section. I think that by giving Lover Fest its own section or subsection within the Lover album article, we can underline its specific role in the album’s overall narrative.
But, I also recognize that the available reliable sources don’t provide the level of in-depth independent coverage needed for a fully separate article. That’s why a dedicated section creates a space to document the planning, the impact of the cancellation, and how it ties into the project’s broader context, without overwhelming the album’s core content. I think the structured separation not only helps readers understand the connection between the event and the album.
Does this clarify my reasoning? Would you like to explore ways to further differentiate the content within the section? Jorge Lobo Dos Santos (talk) 10:56, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Can I create a section or sub-section in this article that is in compliance with the GA criteria? Jorge Lobo Dos Santos (talk) 17:28, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
I don't think it's necessary, a paragraph would do though. Ippantekina (talk) 04:44, 4 May 2025 (UTC)
