Declined speedy (though I still don't see any importance or significance asserted). Non-notable performance artist, fails WP:MUSIC. ukexpat (talk) 19:48, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. I added some references. She passes the general notability guideline. -- Eastmain (talk) 20:25, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: With respect to the sources now listed, the second and fifth point to the same article, with only trivial coverage; the fourth and sixth are trivial. So, I don't think that passes muster per WP:MUSIC. – ukexpat (talk) 20:47, 22 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment. I have corrected the link for the second reference. It now points to http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2007/nov/23/popandrock6 The use of the term "trivial" is incorrect. A listing under the heading "The Hottest Downloads" in a large-circulation quality newspaper such as The Sunday Times (the sixth reference) is analogous to a listing in a best-seller list, and is not trivial either. This is an artist who is taken seriously by the British press, and hence is notable. --Eastmain (talk) 21:05, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. I added something from Pitchfork and an interview from BBC Oxford as references. --Eastmain (talk) 23:41, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep passes WP:MUSIC for the 23 November, 2007 Guardian article (the other is only a trivial mention, as is the 16 December, 2007 TimesOnline), the BBC & the Pitchforkmedia references.    Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 02:21, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
