Metis (reggae artist)

 * — (View AfD)

Found while working on the backlog in CAT:CSD, was nominated as a A7, one of the people on the talk page suggested an afd, and I thought it would be best to do so. I think it should be deleted in this case, but I would like other comments. —— Eagle (ask me for help) 05:52, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep I don't know good sources for checking on Japanese musicians, but three albums would be enough to meet WP:MUSIC if they're on a major label or "important indie". I'd like to help avoid systemic bias, so I did a quick (and very generic) gsearch and found this as a ref for her first album, but I don't read Japanese.  For obscure indies, it's usually the first album that's hard to find, so I suspect there's sufficient notability here.  Especially considering that was the top link in a very generic search with many unrelated responses.  ("Metis" also appears to be the name of a native American tribe, and "answer" is an extremely common word.)  Xtifr tälk 23:41, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * For information There are two out-of-stock CDs on amazon.com - "You And Me A One" and "Opus-1". DrKiernan 09:38, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete unless notability can be established. Chondrite 23:03, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Latest release is on Crown Records: http://www.crownrecord.co.jp/artist/metis/whats.html  Crown likely qualifies as a major label in Japan, with artists such as Gackt. - Neier 00:14, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
