Orphaned article previously proposed for deletion on grounds of subject failing to meet notability per WP:MUSIC - upgraded to AFD after creator (presumably) contested PROD by removing template. Gordonofcartoon 13:23, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. Does not meet WP:MUSIC. Winning a prize is good, being mentioned in a Financial Times review is good, but we don't yet see the extensive third-party coverage, the concert tours, the two or more records with major labels, etc. The article is premature. EdJohnston 14:50, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep She had to win a New England regional competition to audition for the Met, and performed with them for a while after the national competion. Meets win or place major competion. I believe the list of opera companies qualifies for "performed music for a work of media that is notable". Horrorshowj 00:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep She has won a major music competition with the Metropolitan Opera and placed in two other competitions for Opera Singers, the George London Foundation Competition and the Sullivan Foundation Competition. She has also had several reviews in the New York Times, Financial Times, Opera News and the Wall Street Journal among others. She has recently recorded an opera, Ariane et Barbe-Bleue with the BBC Symphony under the Telarc Record Label. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Divattu (talk • contribs) 28 July, 2007 — Divattu (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
• Delete I nominated this article for WP:PROD because I too agree it's premature. I looked at all the reviews, but they were of the productions – not her specifically. She was mentioned in them, but was not the subject of them, and there's a difference. Also, the creator of the article, Divattu, is either Nolen or someone close to her with a clear COI. The article can be recreated if/when WP:MUSIC is met. - KrakatoaKatie 19:35, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
