Delete. WP:BLP of a creative professional with no strong claim to passing WP:CREATIVE. The strongest notability claim here is that she was one member of a band which competed on but did not win a reality show — so even the band don't even clear WP:NMUSIC yet, let alone individual members of it. This is based almost entirely on primary sources and YouTube videos rather than reliable source coverage in media; the only source here that even begins to count for anything toward notability being a "local girl gets on TV" piece in her own hometown newspaper, but that's just not enough to give her a WP:GNG pass. Further, there's a likely conflict of interest here, as the creator's username was "Thedancer2016". As always, Wikipedia is not a free publicity platform on which reality show competitors get to give themselves articles just because they exist — reliable source coverage in media, supporting a claim of notability that passes an actual inclusion standard, must be present for a Wikipedia article to become earned.

 * It appears to have a number of different third party Citations other than Britains Got Talent194.70.64.250 (talk) 23:11, 25 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I've already addressed the reasons why the citations aren't demonstrating what's needed: almost all of them are primary sources, not reliable sources, and the two that are reliable sources aren't demonstrating notability. Bearcat (talk) 17:21, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I am sure you're right as you have much more experience on Wikapedia than me but I think there are a lot of Wikapedia pages where the person is maybe not notable enough to meet with Wikapedia guidelines. Are you going to delete them all?194.70.64.250 (talk) 23:07, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
