[edit] Kirari

Kirari (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Does not seem to meet WP:MUSIC sufficiently to have a separate article. No sources. Barely any content for that matter. —Torc. (Talk.) 05:52, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Japan-related deletion discussions. —Quasirandom (talk) 15:18, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  • My blood's "A" too. Does that excite you? No, I didn't think it would. Delete. -- Hoary (talk) 15:43, 18 February 2008 (UTC) ..... Correction: no, simple redirect to OICETS. Hoary (talk) 23:53, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment Does not seem to pass WP:MUSIC (the Japanese wikipedia article lists a couple more songs, but I can't tell if any have charted). However, she might be borderline notable as an actor: she's had at least a handful of roles in live TV dramas plus a movie, though none of them seem to have been lead, and hosted a radio show, and if English language sources are to be believed (these aren't mention on ja:wiki), she's done voice acting for hentai anime. And that's as far as I can get -- someone who reads Japanese will have to take over tracking down sources. —Quasirandom (talk) 18:03, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment: Also, if the decision is to delete, the article should be replaced with a redirect to OICETS. —Quasirandom (talk) 18:05, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Meets WP:MUSIC. Her cover of Toy Soldiers charted in Japan. Oricon's website is far from the easiest to navigate, but hopefully this link will work for anyone. (she's number 18). Neier (talk) 12:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  • That would clinch it: keep, passes WP:MUSIC 2. If you could add that to the article, with the source, that would be most useful. —Quasirandom (talk) 14:58, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Withdrawn - Can't blame me for nominating this though. :-) —Torc. (Talk.) 20:15, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  • No blame at all -- definitely a good-faith nomination, given the state of the article and information available in English. —Quasirandom (talk) 22:15, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Definitely no blame here – I'm not even sure if any google search could have turned up that nugget of info. I only remembered her because the confusion that formed in my head since the group Kiroro was popular at the same time her song came out (it was the theme for a tv series, which is how I heard it); combined with the fact that I knew I'd heard the song long ago in English...
