[edit] Doreen Chanter

Was a back up singer in the 1970s, does not meet music or biography criteria, delete--nixie 01:38, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Keep as a redirect to Chanter Sisters - This site makes the parenthetical note of Doreen and Irene Chanter that "The Chanter sisters' stellar credits include work with Elton John, Long John Baldry, Chris Farlowe, Phil Manzanera, Roxy Music, John Miles, The Secret Policeman's Ball, Van Morrison, Roger Waters, Meatloaf, Joe Cocker and many other famous names." That pushes them over the notability bar for me. -- BD2412 ^talk 01:59, 2005 Jun 9 (UTC)
  • After additional research, it is clear that the subject of this article is notable in her own right apart from her work with her sister. -- BD2412 ^talk 13:18, 2005 Jun 9 (UTC)
• Keep Notable (if obscure) musician. Formerly in The Chanters, Birds of a Feather (Elton John played on their album!), The Chanter Sisters, and tons of backup work. She's worked with Sting, Eric Clapton, Roger Waters, Phil Collins... Trust me, she's notable. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 02:04, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete if not expanded, or make it a redirect. Keep if proper material is added. At this time, it is still a trivia trap. Geogre 02:05, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
