The result was   redirect to Rock Star: INXS. After 14 days there's not enough participation to determine consensus but the article is an unsourced BLP so I'm redirecting per WP:BLP. (non-admin closure) Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:03, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Fails WP:MUSICBIO. There are no reliable sources.  SilkTork  *YES! 00:21, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. AS IS, the article does not meet WP:V; however, many independent, reliable sources do exist in GoogleNews and elsewhere (e.g.). In determining notability, consideration given to #1, #5 #9, and #12 in WP:MUSICBIO as she finished fifth in the Rock Star: INXS competition and received much press while on the show.

 * Redirect to Rock Star: INXS. no notability shown outside show. coverage is about Unga from the show (eg link provided above is Unga's bio from the show). I see no evidence for #5 (two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels). If you meant #9, Rock Star: INXS is just another TV talent show (see precendence for Idol, etc contestants). I see no evidence for #12, she is not the subject of Rock Star: INXS, just another contestant. Duffbeerforme (talk) 11:43, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I did mean #9 and not #5, so thanks for somehow catching that! I gave consideration to #9 because there is little in the guidelines to say this is "just" a talent show and not a music competition. She performed 12 times on a major television network, so I think this is a bit different that singing a song at a local beauty contest. While I do agree that she has no notability outside the show, that does not necessitate that she cannot have her own article. I was not aware of any Afd precedents regarding Idol contestants, but I did use the current quality of the article and the presence of similar articles - those who have performed over multiple weeks and placed high - in Idol and Rock Star as a guideline in forming a weak keep recommendation.Location (talk) 16:03, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
