The article has twice been speedied per A7 in 2013 and I'm seeing nothing different now, (I fugured an AFD would be more productive than simply slapping an A7 on it), No evidence of notability, Fails NACTOR & GNG – Davey 2010 Talk 01:05, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment An obituary in The Telegraph says she was also known as Evelyn King. An article on dewiki (and es and fr) has sources that look good at first glance. Lelijg (talk) 07:47, 22 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep per WP:ENT #1 (>50 films). Further, she wrote 2 autobiographies and is mentioned in many books about German light music in the 1940s & 50s. She had obituaries in Der Spiegel, Die Welt, the Neue Zürcher Zeitung, and many more. Her marriage to an unknown businessman in 1963 was noted in Der Spiegel – under the headline "Evelyn Künneke". -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 08:54, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Support Michael Bednarek's reasons. And another obit: The Independent of 30 May 2001 says: "..."Sing Nachtigall, Sing"...the second most popular hit of wartime Germany after Dietrich's "Lili Marlene"..." and "...Rainer Werner Fassbinder... rediscovered her as a forthright witness of the Nazi period..."

 * Keep, among other things, Künneke has an entry in an authorative and widely cited printed encyclopedia about German cinema, the CineGraph's Lexikon zum deutschsprachigen Film published in 1984. Cavarrone 10:55, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
