Seems like an open and shut case for failing WP:Music. Page has numerous issues, but failing notability seems the most pertinent. ASCAP awards do not seem to confer required notability. Rayman60 (talk) 00:19, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

- Comment: I guess this is going to hinge on whether the ASCAP awards are considered notable or not. There are at least two reliable sources in there, the Sound on Sound article and the Billboard news article (a dead link on the Wikipedia article but archived here).

- Delete The total sum of coverage seems to be niche publications dedicated to her professional field, and coverage of the awards ceremony via Billboard which would be a more reasonably general title. None of this is enough to suggest she's prominent enough in her relatively minor field, which surely places below songwriter and producer in the hierarchy of importance, and we routinely delete those.

- Keep She is important in her field and recognized as such by Mix Magazine and Pro Sound News. She was interviewed in Billboard and profiled by Black Enterprise. I've added sources to the article which include books, journals and news. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:11, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
- Forgot to add that she's in The Huffington Post and in M Music and Musicians magazine. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:19, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
- Keep: She's an engineer, not a performer. So "niche publications dedicated to her professional field" clearly constitutes significant coverage in multiple sources independent of the subject. And an ASCAP award is a major award for someone in a technical field. These folks who work behind the scenes probably have more brains and talent than most of the performers they work with. Credit long overdue, IMHO. Montanabw(talk) 16:09, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
