Gathania

Ninth place finish on Swedish version of Idol is a far cry from notability. Only sources on article are a trviail mention on a blog (can't tell if it's official or user, as it's in a foreign language) and what looks to be her own website or marketer's website. Would need multiple independent reliable sources with nontrivial coverage to demonstrate notability enough for an article here. DreamGuy (talk) 20:11, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Blame it on you is gettin heavy airplay. she will be big. keep da page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.70.76.224 (talk) 16:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Can you provide any evidence of that, such as links to radio station web sites? If it can be verified then the subject might pass WP:MUSIC criterion 11. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:32, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Here is evidence. The google results on Swedish State Radio (Sveriges Radio). http://www.google.se/search?hl=sv&q=Gathania+site%3Asr.se&meta= . It shows some playlists and that Get It Out was on DigiListan for some weeks. This shows she's got airplay on BBC 1 http://www.google.se/search?hl=sv&q=Gathania++site%3Abbc.co.uk&meta=Linnea94 (talk) 13:53, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not-notable at this stage. She may enjoy chart success in the future, but right now she's just an Idol contestant. Cheers, This flag once was red^propaganda_deeds 00:27, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Added some references. She is signed with a record company in Great Britain and Sweden, that makes her notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Linnea94 (talk • contribs) 12:05, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Fails WP:ENTERTAINER, and "she will be big" is not an argument to keep. See WP:CRYSTAL. لenna vecia 18:48, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Jennavecia. --Kuzaar^-T-C- 12:25, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I suppose you and Jennavecia either didnt read the WP:ENTERTAINER or the article itself because that guidline say See WP:MUSIC for guidelines on musicians, composers, groups, etc. Gathania is a musician and not an entertainer. And she fulfills point one and two on WP:MUSIC Criteria for musicians and ensembles. Linnea94 (talk) 14:38, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see "Blame it on You" in either the UK or Swedish charts (UK, Swedish 1, Swedish 2) so I'm not really seeing how WP:MUSIC 1 and 2 apply - she's "been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works" in her capacity as a contestant (hence WP:ENTERTAINER), not - so far as I can see - in her capacity as a musician. WP:MUSIC 2 would apply if she'd charted, not simply by being signed to a record label (which you suggest above makes her notable).

No not Blame it on You but Get It Out is in Swedish 1, week 7-8. And here [1] on your second link. Linnea94 (talk) 14:56, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
