The result was merge to Midnattsol. The keep !votes are generally not based in policy. Notability must be demonstrated via evidence that the subject meets WP:GNG, WP:NMUSIC, or WP:ANYBIO. No such evidence has been put forward. Notability does not derive from popularity, from comments made by the subject of the article, or from having founded a band that already has its own article.

Carmen Elise Espenæs

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable musician. Previous attempt to redirect to the band was reverted. The only sources available online are blogs, ads, and press releases, so this fails WP:MUSICBIO. Bradv 🍁  23:58, 10 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep: Well, I made the article, I think it's a remarkable artist because she is the leader of a certain band of recognition in their genre, called Midanttsol. Besides her work with Leave s Eyes and her own band Savn --Apega71 (talk) 00:11, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep: Why delete the article? Everyone in Norway loves Carmen Ellise. She deserves to have her own article for her outstanding musical career. In many languages it has its own page.

 * Merge into Midnattsol - Combined these two articles possibly pass WP:NMUSIC, but I'm not all that happy about the individual sourcing on either at the moment, though I feel like that can probably be fixed. Nathan2055talk - contribs 08:45, 11 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Merge (or even delete) into the band. There is not enough about her specifically in the references. Arguments like "she is loved" are not valid for a deletion discussion. If you vote keep, please come up with something substantial (sources). wikitigresito (talk) 22:49, 15 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Merge to Midnattsol. I was able to add one reference about Carmen Elise specifically, but most coverage is about Midnattsol. If Savn does release another album this year, then there may be more coverage of her, and an individual article may be warranted, but at the moment it seems WP:TOOSOON for that.

 * Keep. I added some material from a podcast interview and in it, the interviewer and Carmen indicated the surprisingly large following the band has in Mexico and parts of South America. She is the founder of the bands, that should be significant in itself. There are a lot of metal sites on the web but it is challenging sifting the blogs from RS, it could take some time.

 * Keep. For explain better my argument. Carmen Espanæs is a very complete and respected artist in the metal band of Germany and Norway. She is one of the greatest exponents of the called genre Nordic Folk Metal and has founded two bands, where she is the composer and the singer. Anything else?--Chavitico (talk) 01:29, 18 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Comment I would like to point out that multiple of the keep votes come from accounts with very few edits. wikitigresito (talk) 00:10, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
