This article, though old, does not have reliable articles indicating the notability of the singer. I am leaving it here for further inputs ShopLeft (talk) 20:22, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete not enough sourcing to establish notability. Considering how poor our notability guidelines and article creation procedures were in the past, it at times almost seems that the older an article is the worse it is formatted. There are exceptions, but Wikipedia was a wild place before 2010, with more loose rules on creation and less oversight and most notability guidelines that existed then had been put in place before the damage of none had been done. Earlier this year I nominated an article dating back to 2004 that had no sources at all for deletion. Being on Wikipedia a long time is not in any way a sign of anything.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:25, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * This article actually dates back to 2009. That is actually fairly recent by Wikipedia standards.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:26, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * The 3 millionth article in Wikipedia was created in August 2009. That means that by sheer number that is about the middle of Wikipedia's history. However this ignores the number of articles deleted.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:31, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
