• Delete: no evidence of notability per WP:MUSICBIO. The only conceivable alternative to deletion would be a redirect to Highway Sisters, but I've just taken a look at the band's page and nominated it for deletion. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 11:48, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
• Delete does not meet our inclusion guidelines for musicians.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:05, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
• Do Not Delete does not meet criteria for speedy deletion. Plenty of sources cited. It meets #1 & #4 of WP:MUSICBIO It definitely needs cleanup though. almaniacopedia (talk) 11:20, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
• Very weak keep. The article seems to have sources that don't belong, such a Itunes, but she does have a history, and a couple of other verifiable sources. The majority does seem to be original research, however. LePanini (Talk) 17:05, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
• Needs Work But Should Be Kept. Agree with LePanini & almaniacopedia... I think that the sources need cleaning up. But I do not think article should be deleted. RedDirtRedBird (talk) 17:20, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
• Delete Fails WP:MUSICBIO. KidAd talk 17:33, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
• Mild Keep She seems notable, but I don't see sales figures for her albums, awards won, mentions in major media outlets. Serving in the military is neither here nor there, neither is being at an audition for American Idol. Sounds like she's almost a big star, but not yet. Perhaps a bit too early in her career for an article. Oaktree b (talk) 04:04, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
• Delete: does not meet WP:MUSICBIO - the fact that minor details like auditioning for American Idol and being mentioned in a magazine article are included suggested clutching at straws to establish notability, but the bar does not seem to be met. Melcous (talk) 21:15, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

• Keep-Meets WP:MUSICBIO This article meets the following guidelines of WP:MUSICBIO:

1. 1. “Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself.[note 1]

This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries[note 2]“ (She has been the subject of MULTIPLE published works such as newspaper both online and print, magazine articles, etc)”

1. 4. “ Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country.”(References have been added to support this)

Musicians are considered notable if they meet one of the WP:MUSICBIO criteria. She meets two, possibly more. It just seems that there has been a lot of deletion of the page without anyone actually looking for the references which were fairly easy to find with a google search. Open to feedback on references that I’ve added. RedDirtRedBird (talk) 21:20, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
