Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a singer, whose only substantive or reliably sourced claim of notability is having been a non-winning competitor on a reality show. Nothing else here passes WP:NMUSIC at all: she has yet to release her debut recording, the live appearances sourced here are all in Toledo, Ohio (which her hometown is a suburb of), and every single reference here is either a primary source that cannot assist notability at all, or local coverage in Toledo's local media. As always, every musician is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because she exists -- she has to achieve something that satisfies WP:NMUSIC, and have the reliable source coverage to support it, for an article to become earned.

- @Bearcat: Please do explain how WP:BEFORE was followed in this case. I see no argument not to redirect to America's Got Talent (season 11)#Top 36 acts per WP:NMUSIC and WP:ATD-R but I might have missed something. Regards SoWhy 08:59, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
- A redirect can still be created from the redlink if desired. But the reason I listed it for deletion rather than redirection per se is that there's no valid or substantive reason to retain the article's content in the edit history of the title or to merge any more of the content from here than the target already contains.
