CupcakKe

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Too soon. Only two primary sources (interviews) at Google News. There is this article, but Cupcakke is not the sole focus. Fails WP:GNG. Strong possibility she'll warrant an article in a year's time, but I ain't a fortune teller. Anyhow, I'm not convinced she meets any of the criteria at WP:NMUSIC -- she's not even signed to a label per the article. I can't think of anywhere intuitive to redirect this article, so I'm proposing deletion.

I do have one of her songs stuck in my head now, so there's that. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:34, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep she is getting real publicity from the Complex article mentioned above to the paper mag article currently among the sources.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:46, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Point received,, but I don't believe interviews can be used to establish notability. And I think this qualifies as a passing mention, since she is not the chief focus and it's hardly in-depth. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:30, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Each fact must be evaluated for the reliability of its source. An interview is often a very reliable source for certain facts. Whereas, we would not rely on an interview for a critical assessment of the interview subject's work, we might rely on it for parent's/siblings/offsprings names or existence, place of birth, etc. An interview can provide a reliable source for certain facts.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 17:46, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay, but I'm discussing the subject's notability, where you're discussing the reference's reliability. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:36, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per TOOSOON and if not even signed to a label, definitely too soon. Inadequate indicia of notability.    Montanabw (talk)  18:53, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per TOOSOON. The subject of this article could certainly gain enough notability in the future to warrant her own page, but for right now it is far too soon to do so. Aoba47 (talk) 04:58, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per TOOSOON. Not just yet. Maybe down the rod this could warrant an article, but they just don't seem to meet WP:NMUSIC. RickinBaltimore (talk) 19:07, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
 * The AFD template was removed from the article, I have restored it. --Cameron11598 (Talk) 19:08, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as nothing at all convincing for any applicable notability. SwisterTwister   talk  22:49, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
