Not a national award and arguably not an important awardEdit

Stubøprisen.
The prize is not a national award - it is a regional award. (How much more than 300,000 people live in the region, I am not sure of.)

It seems like the winner in 2013 and the winner in 2015 are not wiki-notable; I am fine with those winners being redirected to the article about the prize.

However, the only move I am making for now is to give my support for someone else to get the ball rolling:
Perhaps one should note, on say this discussion page, when consensus is reached that the
*1989-winner is notable enough to be redirected (to the article about the prize), but not keep the article about the individual artist for now.
*1991-winner is notable enough to be redirected, but not keep the article for now.
*1993-winner, and
*1995, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2017, 2019.

(An alternative might be that someone becomes bold, and redirects one name at a time - redirects to the article about the prize. One could perhaps start doing this around say the 15th of January.)
Note: Do not redirect for any individual who is wiki-notable enough to have one's own article! Regards! 89.8.141.19 (talk) 20:19, 27 December 2020 (UTC)/ 89.8.141.19 (talk) 20:27, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Al Hall, BassistEdit

I am Al Hall's oldest grandchild and the holder of his archives; approximately 13 large rubber bins of papers, ephemera--playbills; menus; flight information, recordings, and pictures

I would welcome helping with content about him included in the project in any way that I can (i.e. verification of dates, peoples, venues, recording, etc.) (LCEverstz (talk) 20:26, 4 January 2021 (UTC))
