  • Weak delete Googling shows this is a real singer and the song Hula Hoop (a Cheeky Girls type dance-pop track) did have a video with what looks like a moderate budget. No information beyond that that I could find. Will gladly reconsider if anybody comes up with reliable sources. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 23:28, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
    • doesn't sound like notability threshold crossed to me. `'mikka 00:05, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, fails WP:MUSIC from what's available. --Dhartung | Talk 01:35, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. I tagged the article for references in January, and none have been provided to date. Article looks abandoned. Most definately fails notabiity criteria for WP:Music. Cricket02 22:19, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong keep. Criterion 2 is "has had a charted hit on any national music chart", and Hula Hoop was, as the article states, a major hit in Thailand in summer 2003 and made waves in the rest of SE Asia as well — I've got a CD full of remixes of that track alone. Googling for her Thai name (แนน) pulls up 413,000 hits, nearly all of them referring to her. Jpatokal 16:18, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
