Mey Vidal
Not notable Spanish language singer, advertising. Delete. --Fibonacci 00:42, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, unless strong argument made to the contrary. Google search certainly suggests notability (not on number of hits, but on what they say). Fibonacci, do you have some basis to say non-notable? Is this a field you know well and assert that the web sites in question are misleading or what? -- Jmabel | Talk 03:58, Mar 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * Could you point me to a specific link, Jmabel? I did a Google search, and found nothing that suggests notability. --Fibonacci 03:39, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * For starters, 168 hits, nearly all appear to be her. No one item is all that big, but she keeps showing up in the context of reasonably major performers and venues. Looks like a reasonably active musician, performing enough to merit an article. I'm not aware of any other Cubanas doing reggae, so I suspect that alone makes her kinda notable. No great loss if deleted, but we certainly have musicians less notable than this. -- Jmabel | Talk 05:16, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: Reggaeton is not the same as reggae. Tuf-Kat 08:11, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Nearly all appear to be her, and say nothing at all? Again, could you point me to a specific link? I mean, if there is any that remotely suggests her notability. --Fibonacci 00:41, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, agree with Jmabel. Megan1967 06:51, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Tentative Keep. Seems to have some notability within genre but would appreciate assessment against WikiMusic project guidelines. Capitalistroadster 10:43, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Does it even meet the guidelines? If it does, it is nowhere documented on the article, as is asked in the guidelines' page. I still say delete. --Fibonacci 15:00, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete unless evidence of significant notability is presented. No allmusic.com entry, for what it's worth. Gamaliel 00:48, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Neither allmusic nor artistdirect ever heard of her. The top Google searches are music download pages, which seems to indicate that she doesn't have a recording contract.  This link seems to indicate some notability, though "Next Level" just seems to be an internet "tv show".  Weak delete.  RickK 01:01, Apr 3, 2005 (UTC)
