Karen Kamon
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:NMUSIC and WP:NACTOR with near-nonexistent filmography and two flop albums without articles. Additionally WP:NOTINHERITED as her only shred of notoriety has come from coattailing Karen Carpenter and Phil Ramone. Sourcing is atrocious (Facebook and IMDb) with no attempt made to improve article in the three years since its first nomination was closed. sixty nine  • whaddya want? •  17:32, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment This is about the best I could find,, very much a one-hit wonder, with scant sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 23:03, 9 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Rather than criticizing the quality of the article, the more relevant question is whether the notability criteria is too restrictive. If you see or hear a reference to someone and can't go to Wikipedia to find out who it is, what good is Wikipedia? Jkolak (talk) 23:56, 9 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep per the reasons and sources found in the first AFD. It appears that the article hasn't been improved very much since then but the findings stand. MB 05:47, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep for the same reason user MB gives. Newspapers.com has additional sources as described in the earlier AfD. There is a text link on newspaper.com's pages. Here are two of the additional sources:
 * https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/511373161/ (feature article with photo).
 * https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/372432903/ (marriage to Phil Ramone and "Heart of You" album).

Unfortunately I don't have the time to add these to the article myself so I put these links on her talk page.  5Q5 &#124;&#9993; 11:17, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per lengthy list of sources at last discussion. Deletion is not cleanup. Innisfree987 (talk) 23:19, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
