 * Comment promotional, but it's rewritable. The more important problem is that it reads asif it had been copied somewhere, in which case it should be deleted as a copyvio.  DGG ( talk ) 01:42, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Regarding the copyvio, this article's text is roughly identical to Israela's description on.
 * It is not obvious which was the original. The WP version of the text was written around May 24, 2013. The article was written sometime (date unknown) after January 2013, according to Wayback Machine (the last cached revision without Israela was that time).
 * There are things leading me to believe either way: the WP version evolved(see "She appeared...") into its current form, which copyvios usually don't do. On the other hand, none of the other bios on the external page are copied from WP. Something's not right here, I'm just not sure if it's them or us.&mdash;Lucas Thoms, formerly My Ubuntu (talk) 02:06, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I think the 4 February 2013 version of the article would probably be the best starting point for a rewrite, before the current over-promotional text was added. Clearly notable as a pianist and maybe as a playwright too. The quickest of Google searches reveals plenty of potential sources. --Deskford (talk) 09:36, 13 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep I agree with Deskford: notable subject, just needs a better article.&mdash;Lucas Thoms, formerly My Ubuntu (talk) 14:31, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep. Formerly sloppy article, since revamped, numerous reliable sources suggest subject easily passes the general notability guideline.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 00:11, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - Passes GNG from sources now showing in the piece. Note to : Be sure to search for sources per WP:BEFORE. Being written in a promotional tone is generally not regarded as a legitimate reason for deletion; it is something that should be fixed through the normal editing process or alternatively flagged for its flaws.
