Contested prod. This artist fails WP:MUSIC, has yet to release an album, and lacks non-trivial coverage by reliable third party publications. JBsupreme (talk) 07:44, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom as fails WP:N and WP:V. Weak Keep and cleanup don't know how I missed the huge amount of coverage. Although not all the GNews stuff is about this person a reasonable amount is and is from reliable 3rd party sourcing. I'm gonna grab a couple and add them to the article.

- Comment. Which of the deletion criteria does the nominator think this article comes under? Mostlyharmless (talk) 04:50, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep. A very cursory search finds non-trivial coverage in The Guardian, the New York Times, and the International Herald Tribune. I'm sure if I looked for more than 30 seconds (literally, that is all it took me to find them - Google News, "Amanda Blank", all dates), I could find a bunch more.

- Strong keep. Substantial non-trivial musical collaborations mean she would sail past the spirit of WP:MUSIC even if not the letter. Fortunately, because of the rakes of press coverage, she aces the latter too. Strong candidate for improvement, not deletion. tomasz. 17:37, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep. As per the others, and yes - her collaborative efforts are pretty well known and with major artists, and she does have a solo EP out (for "Get It Now"). And with that album coming out... --Grahamdubya (talk) 18:14, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
