Article deletion

While I agree that this article has some WP:OR problems (or just a lack of citations), deletion isn't the answer, especially not for a story this well-known. I'd like to see an effort to upgrade the article rather than a unilateral decision to delete it in favor of a redirect to the collection of the same name.
