Etana (musician)

Notability in regard to WP:MUSIC appears to be less than marginal; the lack of independent references does not help. Ecoleetage (talk) 13:18, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, passes WP:MUSIC#C9, [1]. Esradekan Gibb ^"Talk" 23:38, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Concur with Gibb. — BQZip01 — ^talk 06:04, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. C9 requires a "major" music competition, and the ref provided by Gibb refers to a local awards show (in fact, it says it will change the face of the local entertainment scene. If someone can provide a reference that the award is "major", i'm willing to change my vote. - Philippe 19:55, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
:I guess it is all a matter of perspective. This appears to be a major competition on Jamaica, but not necessarily internationally. Given that it is a major one in a country, I'm inclined to keep it. Counterpoint? — BQZip01 — ^talk 21:00, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep even outside of the EME, the fact that her album's #12 on the billboard reggae charts[2] right now makes it an easy keep. Vickser (talk) 01:06, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~. No references to prove any of the assertions made in the article. The claims may meet WP:MUSIC, but the article itself fails WP:BLP. BradV 01:28, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Change to Keep per User:Vickser, although article is in desperate need of a rewrite (and some sources!). BradV 01:36, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
