[edit] Nikki Flores

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

Non-notable singer. Signed to Sony at a young age, released 2 singles that failed to chart, and her planned album was shelved. Fails WP:MUSIC. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 20:22, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletion discussions. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 20:27, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep if she is in fact signed to Sony Music I think that alone meets criteria for inclusion. I suspect this article just needs some improvement, which should happen naturally over time. Coccyx Bloccyx (talk) 20:37, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment Being signed to a major label isn't one of the criteria; it's releasing two albums on a major label—she hasn't even released one. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 21:04, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete with no prejudice against recreation once she charts (if she does). She hasn't put out an album or singles yet, so she seems to fail WP:MUSIC right now. Given that she is with a major label (anyone know which division of Sony?), she probably could meet some criterion in the future, just not right now.

  • Exactly. If someone can locate reliable sources of these two singles then I think this is a fairly solid case for inclusion if they were released under the Sony label. Coccyx Bloccyx (talk) 20:57, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

• Comment Appears to be Epic Records.SonyBMG site using AllMusic data I've found a 404'd article in The Age that suggests, as of last August, her album This Girl still hadn't been released. --Dhartung | Talk 20:58, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete - no evidence that she meets WP:MUSIC or WP:BIO. BRMo (talk) 22:38, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
• Upon further consideration, if this artist is signed but has yet to actually release anything, and no valuable third party publications are available, we may as well remove this for now (without prejudice) until such sources do become available. Coccyx Bloccyx (talk) 20:34, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep Appears to be a notable actress. --Sharkface217 03:06, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment There's only one role listed on IMDb, which doesn't meet Wikipedia:BIO#Entertainers.

• An actor can be notable for only one role. This person has done more than act in that MTV film anyway.--Oakshade (talk) 07:10, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

• Comment Wikipedia:BIO#Entertainers says different: "Has had significant roles or been featured multiple times in notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions." —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 09:12, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete without prejudice until better sources are published about the subject. (jarbarf) (talk) 02:21, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - Signed with a major label like Sony does make this person notable in addition to having a principal role in a MTV film. --Oakshade (talk) 07:10, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment WP:MUSIC does not include being signed to a major label as a criterion for notability. —Hello, Control ^{Hello, Tony} 09:12, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, would not appear to be notable either as a musician or an actor. Fails WP:MUSIC and WP:BIO. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 12:31, 25 March 2008 (UTC).
