Zella Day

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable artists, doesn't seem to pass WP:GNG let alone WP:MUSICBIO. The only coverage I can find of her is either brief mentions, short reviews, or interviews, nothing to demonstrate her suitability for a Wikipedia artist. TOOSOON? Primefac (talk) 08:02, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep. One quick glance here suggests there are numerous reliable sources for her to meet the WP:GNG. Not only that; her wikipage is getting hundreds of pageviews daily, an unofficial sign of interest in her work, while not a specific reason for notability. Further, another unofficial sign of notability is a YouTube video with almost two million views.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 00:37, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
 * A slightly longer glance would show that those articles are almost all name-drops, brief mentions, or interviews. Exactly what I found BEFORE I created this AfD. YouTube numbers are useless; there are cat videos that get that much attention. Popularity =/= notability. Primefac (talk) 07:44, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Her album was reviewed in the NY Times. She gets in-depth treatment in the Chicago Sun Times. More in-depth treatment in the Birmingham Suntimes. Her photo is prominently displayed in the Los Angeles Times here at the popular SXSW festival. Or, in-depth treatment in Playboy magazine. Her music was reviewed in the Washington Times. An in-depth interview here. None of these are "name drops"; clearly Zella Day is getting serious media attention.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 10:03, 23 July 2015 (UTC)--Tomwsulcer (talk) 11:46, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
