Rosie Munter

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The only assertion for notability for this page is that this person was a member of a notable band (Play). To date, this artist has not had a notable independent career. In a Google search, no reliable third-party sources with significant coverage of Rosie Munter, as distinct from Play, were found. As notability is not automatically inherited (WP:ITSA), and independent notability has not been established and seems unlikely to be established, this article should be deleted as not notable.

 * Merge and redirect As a member of a notable band, her biography could be included/merged in the band article so as to address the statement her independent career is not notable by making the information not be placed independently. (There's little biographical info unrelated to the band) - Mgm|(talk) 14:12, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect as a useful search term, no need to merge, though; Play (Swedish girl group) gives as much biographical coverage as is customary for such articles, and merging in the bio information from Rosie Munter would create a lack of balance in the article.

 * I suppose the biographies of the other members of the group should go along with this one. Baileypalblue (talk) 22:45, 17 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment The article Play is start class, so balance is less important than whether material ought to be included. I concur that in principle short bios (which this page would qualify as) of the principal band members are appropriate. I note other band members have articles that look equally mergable. I wonder how much information will survive a merge though; Rosie Munter has only one reference, the subject's official website, which is currently offline. I have been unable to find a useful archival of this website, or any information in reliable sources. Thus only non-controversial information properly cited in the article may be retained; this boils down to four sentences, one of which has details suited to a discography, and another whose information is already in the article, leaving two sentences of biographical information whose self-published source is unavailable for verification. I have not investigated the other band members' pages in detail, but I suspect a similar situation may prevail there. --Rogerb67 (talk) 23:16, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Redirect per reasonable outcome for individual with insufficient notability, but who was part of a notable act. ChildofMidnight (talk) 03:48, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment as the original proposer, I am happy with a result of merge all appropriately sourced material per WP:BLP and redirect. --Rogerb67 (talk) 11:57, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Consensus reached? let's close this thing as a redirect and if there's stuff to merge it can be done from the history and worked out on the talk page of the target article. Let's do this thing. ChildofMidnight (talk) 06:45, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Patience, there is no deadline. There's no reason we can't follow WP:MERGE as usual. If we "shoot first and ask questions later" then firstly any good information on this page will be lost until the merge is completed, and secondly it is overwhelmingly likely it will never be completed, denying readers any useful information forever. --Rogerb67 (talk) 15:41, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
