[edit] Rhiannon (singer)

Rhiannon (singer) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The musician does not appear to meet the notability criteria, and the article lacks reliable independent sources. Prod removed by creator. FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 16:22, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - only "notability" is "won a contest to be in a tribute album for an obscure rock band" --Orange Mike | Talk 16:47, 11 December 2007(UTC)

dear orange mike, "OBSCURE ROCK BAND ?" where were you in the 70s??? then again, perhaps you listen to elevator music, at any rate, the article will be submitted over and over again every time it is deleted, i will make sure it gets re-submitted until it stands un-bothered by those who are un-educated about rock music —Preceding unsigned comment added by TrailorParkDiva (talk • contribs) — TrailorParkDiva (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• • comment - I was listening to Zappa, of course; but you're right to say that Nazareth isn't that obscure, so I've stricken that part out, with apologies to Nazareth and their fans. Your re-submission threats, though, are as unavailing as your inability to spell Trailer. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:29, 11 December 2007 (UTC) (almost bought a double-wide in the 70s)
  • Comment Be assured that our administrators are as tireless in their determination as you, and if the article is deleted, further attempts will only mean blocks and bans for sockpuppetry and violation of our policies. Be civil, assume good faith, and don't make threats -- it certainly isn't garnering you any sympathy. --Dhartung | Talk 23:09, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete no real claims of notability. It crossed my mind to suggest a redirect to Rihanna but it's not a likely search term. MLA (talk) 16:51, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, fails WP:MUSIC. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:03, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

"FAILS?" that's an educated assuption! i will continue to resubmit the article everytime it is deleted from different IPs —Preceding unsigned comment added by TrailorParkDiva (talk • contribs) — TrailorParkDiva (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• Delete - fails music guidelines, notability guidelines, and most importantly, there is a lack of reliable sourcing which could verify any claims. — Rudget _speak.work 17:28, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

"FAILS?" read wikipedia's rules for notable singers and become more educated about the topic of which you speak, you must listen to polka music or something —Preceding unsigned comment added by TrailorParkDiva (talk • contribs) — TrailorParkDiva (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Hmm..although I understand your concerns, I can assure you I have good understanding of pages that fail Wiki-policies. — Rudget ^Talk 18:55, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

I've helped you sign your posts, and removed the copy of WP:MUSIC that you added; it makes it hard to read the page, and we've all read WP:MUSIC. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 18:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

For what it's worth, I can't speak for Rudget, but like any rock fan worth their salt, I have an appreciation for ALL forms of music - including polka. I may not LIKE it all, but I can appreciate it. Personal attacks will not help your case. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

I've enjoyed a good polka, from time to time. I even have a few on my iPod, courtesy of the Andrews Sisters. They, by the way, definitely meet the notability criteria, despite singing polkas. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:49, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. Fails WP:MUSIC. Nazareth are notable. Someone appearing on a Nazareth tribute album isn't enough.--Michig (talk) 20:02, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete (and salt, considering the threats above); WP:MUSIC suggests two albums on notable labels, substantial touring, and good reliable sources. The artist in question has none of the above. Tony Fox (arf!) 21:14, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Based on responses from the article's creator, especially their verbalized intent to keep posting article if it does delete, I'm assuming bad faith. Article subject does not meet the constraints of WP:MUSIC or WP:N. links for party in question do not meet the constraints of WP:V or WP:RS. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 22:08, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete and salt and do all the normal sockpuppet stuff. It's unfortunate that people think we're their own personal webhost and have to keep whatever they add. --Dhartung | Talk 23:09, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletions. -- DoubleBlue (Talk) 02:48, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete with salt Not notable. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 21:44, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete and salt, I regret to say. I'm far from convinced that WP:Music as it exists today is reflective of consensus or good policy, but article author clearly isn't going to be doing the band or inclusionists any favors. Orphic (talk) 09:32, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
