The result was Keep. Someone might like to add some refs to the article. The song articles aren't part of this AfD and any merging/redirecting of such can be done in the usual manner. (non-admin close) RMHED (talk) 18:14, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Despite the deceiving list of credits, I do not feel this person meets WP:MUSIC due to the lack of non-trivial coverage from reliable and independent third party publications. JBsupreme (talk) 02:27, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I agree with you. Lady Galaxy 02:42, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- It seems to me that it would be more logical to delete/redirect all those pages to her profile page rather than delete her profile page and leave all the single song pages. Does that make sense? (Perhaps better said: If these songs are notable, and there's that many, wouldn't the singer be notable?) Vengeance is mine, saith the Prime 02:47, 14 Aug 2008 (UTC)
- Week Keep does seem to have independent coverage like [1] - any albums or songs that don't meet WP:MUSIC should be redirected to singer's article though - and I wish I could say delete for apparently also having albums titled Now is the Winter of Our Discotheque -Hunting dog (talk) 10:25, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and hold on at least long enough for me to get home and try to find references! Princess Superstar is reasonably notable; certainly not in the same league as many of the WP:MUSIC-failing individuals who've been listed here today. AlexTiefling (talk) 16:26, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- OK: Sources - Metro interview; Top 10 listing for Perfect (Exceeder) collaboration with Mason (WP:MUSIC criterion 2). AlexTiefling (talk) 22:38, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Also, shouldn't the song articles be merged into the article about the artist? Individually they may not be enough to justify separate articles, but they constitute a notable body of work. AlexTiefling (talk) 22:43, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep she would appear to meet the notability criteria (although I'm not sure the same can be said for all her songs/albums and they therefore should be merges or redirects per the relevant policies/guidelines. Jasynnash2 (talk) 10:52, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Easy keep. A quick glance shows songs hitting #3 and #11 in the UK Singles Chart, certainly enough to meet WP:MUSIC. Personally I remember Bad Babysitter being in annoyingly heavy rotation on music video channels. Some of the song articles could well be merged though. the wub "?!" 11:10, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
