Liu Yu (singer, born 2000)

Singer who does not individually satisfy any of the musical notability criteria. As a draft, it was declined twice, and then moved manually to article space. (There is no rule against manually moving a draft to article space, but basic policies such as notability and verifiability apply.) A review shows that the subject still does not satisfy any of the criteria individually, and this article should be redirected to Into1. (I am not unilaterally redirecting the article because I am requesting the community to decide, in order to avoid edit-warring.) The article has been reference-bombed, and the references are not being evaluated. The article should speak for itself, and does not establish individual notability.

Liu Yu received significant coverage in reliable sources that were published in 2018, 2020, and 2022. The sources from 2018 and 2020 were published before Into1 was founded in 2021, which demonstrates that Liu Yu is independently notable of Into1. Cunard (talk) 00:36, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
