Speedy deletion

This article was nominated for speedy deletion as a copyvio. Given the copyright clearance pasted on the main page which I removed, it isn't a copyvio. It does need a lot of work to turn it into an article but Ms Meyers appears notable enough given reviews from the New York Times and others see Google News [1] and Google News Archive. [2] I will add categories. Capitalistroadster 04:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This person is quite well known in the violin world. I added some info which is referenced, just need to find the reference. I have interviewed some of the Meyers family but don't have any kind of connection with them. VK35 15:25, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Endorsement

I wonder if it is appropriate to mention her endorsement of a string manufacturer. This looks too much like an advertisement in the article, and it seems of very little significance to her bio. Lots of musicians endorse strings or instruments or something, but I question whether they should be mentioned in Wikipedia unless there is some special significance to the endorsement. Otherwise, it's just more online adware popping up.

I think she is notable enough to merit the article. She has an extensive number of recordings on RCA. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.160.185.160 (talk) 13:03:30, August 19, 2007 (UTC)
