My searches simply found nothing at all and I managed to find her IMDb page but there's hardly much as is with this Wikipedia article. I would've honestly speedied or PRODed if it wasn't there's information about national singing contests thus there may be some Swedish sources. SwisterTwister  talk  03:32, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as WP:TOOSOON, i.e. not notable. I made a serious effort to find sources, and only came up with the following. Dagens Nyheter has her in its listings, so she exists as a public performer, but the paper had no articles on her to confer notability. Svenska Dagbladet had a single short piece on the Junior Eurovision of 2007, with a bare mention of VP among the "other contestants", so no notability there either. Aftonbladet did a little better, on 31 August 2007 stating that VP was the "next chick to be taken account of. She comes from Saltsjöbaden and likes tennis. Her song is called 'Someone like you'." (That was the complete coverage). I guess that constitutes about 10% of the notability threshold, so only 9 more refs like that to go. According to the Swedish Film Institute, VP was one of the "other Swedish voices" in the 2008 Disney film Bolt. This may have been in a crowd scene or chorus, so I doubt this confers notability either. Other than that all I could see were puff-pieces on social media and blogs.

 * Delete - I would agree with the TOOSOON, except this subject's been around for almost a decade now, with no improvement for notability.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:06, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - Afd is not a clean-up service. notable per WP:GNG per WP:MUSIC. She has been very productive in the music industry. The article is not up to shape, but as I stated AfD is not a clean-up service. --BabbaQ (talk) 21:31, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * @BabbaQ: She really hasn't; she's made a bare start and seems (from the Swedish press, I had a careful look) not to have got very far despite a lot of pushing on social media. Chiswick Chap (talk) 22:16, 29 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. My news sweeps (including Swedish news) did not come up with much.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 01:37, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
