American Idol performance chart

McKibbin's performance chart has been deleted twice for being "cruft." After reading Wikipedia:Fancruft I see nothing that applies to the chart as being "cruft." "Fancruft is a term sometimes used in Wikipedia to imply that a selection of content is of importance only to a small population of enthusiastic fans of the subject in question." Since she is most known for coming in third place on the first season of American Idol, a large population of people coming to her article would feel her performances on the show and the results of each week are of importance. I would like in greater detail how the chart is not notable or encyclopedic. Aspects (talk) 02:03, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

• The songs performed are not of importance—it's how she did. Even then, listing how she did every week is not of special import. For a corollary, see WP:CHART: chart trajectories are specifically disallowed as an indiscriminate collection of information. The average person looking up Ms. McKibbin on Wikipedia is not looking to find what songs she performed on the show, they want to know who she is or what she did since Idol. I'm sure that fans of American Idol are interested in the minutiae of the show—for that there is an American Idol wiki. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 13:06, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Death date

These articles are saying that she died on November 1st: [1], [2], [3]. However, this is saying that she passed away on Halloween night: [4]. These are saying that she suffered a brain aneurysm on Wednesday and died that day: [5], [6]. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 16:51, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

From what I've gathered, the aneurysm happened on Wednesday, October 28 and that's when she was declared brain dead, but she was kept on artificial life support until October 31 for her organ donation, with the news going public on November 1. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:1970:56DE:BC00:D586:716:5BBD:D2DC (talk) 18:34, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

These sources are also saying October 31st: [7], [8]. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 20:25, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

Nikki McKibbin was kept on life support until 3AM on November 1st, 2020. Its clearly stated in the fb post by her husband that all of these articles are using for a source. https://www.facebook.com/craig.sadler.963/posts/4032596400087311 The post was made in the afternoon (just check the time stamp) of 10/31/2020 which makes November the 1st the correct date.
