Currently the links on the artist name go directly to the performance. However, it would likely make more sense for the artist name link to their Wikipedia page and the date of the performance serve as a hotlink to the performance. Invite any thoughts on if this is a sensible and/or worthwhile change.Amiaheroyet (talk) 02:46, 17 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Neither. I don't think the bloating of this article with hundreds and hundreds of dates of concerts is at all beneficial, with or without external or internal links to artists. The entire lot should go, and one simple external link to an event listing page would be OK. If the concert series is notable, that's fine. But see WP:NOTTVGUIDE for a reason for their removal.

From my reading of that policy, it appears to be talking about promotions or listings of upcoming events, but the listing in this article is a directory of events that have already occurred and does not appear to be meant as promotion. However, I could see this being considered a violation of the WP:LINKFARM policy, but I'm not entirely convinced of that. Under the MOS:LISTTYPES, I believe that this would be similar to a MOS:LISTOFWORKS. Currently, it provides a full listing of everybody that has performed a Tiny Desk Concert, the date that it was performed, and an external link to view the concert itself. I could see it as fulfilling a similar purpose as the List of concerts at The Anthem or List of entertainment events at Madison Square Garden articles.
To my understanding, a list of events like this is not inherently off-topic for Wikipedia, but I do think it is worth asking whether we really need an exhaustive list of all of these concerts. It may be reasonable to modify this page to be a more general article about Tiny Desk Concerts with a curated selection of specific notable concerts. Ovenel (talk) 16:05, 10 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Split proposed in informal discussion at WP:RM/TR in July 2025

edit

A technical request (permalink) at WP:RM/TR brought up the possibility of a split to List of Tiny Desk Concerts. The execution of the technical move request stopped the discussion, no one has resumed it, so I am merely leaving the link here for future reference.
