Thanks for adding to the list of harpists. Lists like this one on Wikipedia don't typically intend to include all harpists that exist, nor even harpists considered important/talented/successful. "Notable" on Wikipedia means, more or less, that a subject has received significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject. It's sort of a technical term intended to facilitate a neutral definition of what's considered "encyclopedic". More to the point, by "notable" in this case, it means people who have been demonstrated to be sufficiently notable to have their own article on Wikipedia. From the sound of it, she probably is notable, so I would encourage you to create an article about her (at which point, it would obviously be no problem to add her name to the list). Following this message I'll leave another note with some useful links if you're interested to create the article (or if you have other questions -- you could also leave a message on my talk page, but I will be traveling for the next week and may not see the message in a timely fashion. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 19:24, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
