• Delete - Absolutely nothing to show notability. The awards show she hosted, judging from The Source (magazine), doesn't appear sufficient to confer notability and wouldn't be enough by itself anyway. Zero news hits is always a bad sign. Mabalu (talk) 10:23, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - The Source (magazine) actually is the magazine publication that throws The Source Hip Hop Music Awards. The page has been updated to include the IMDB reference which shows Jacky Elastic's involvement in the that awards show with many relevant and established artists. That is a vaild resource. IMDB is a factual, verified site. I am requesting the page to be cleaned up, not deleted. Digilove is also an excellent resource, considering that only very relevant music artist are included on their site. Digilove reports on new releases and music news^[1].

Comment IMDB is not considered a reliable source. If IMDB is the best new source, I'm afraid I can't see this changing the article's fate. She has zero coverage in Google News archive (which I do find surprising as a lot of non-entities do at least manage to scrape up one or two mentions in non-reliable-source tabloid or local press). I tried various spellings - Jacki/Jacquie/Jacqui etc - and had zero hits for those too - all I got was a reference to another singer called Jacqui having elastic vocals. I don't doubt that she exists, but see no evidence of notability. Mabalu (talk) 23:43, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - Digilove.com counts as a source under online article. According to the Wikipedia: "What counts as a reliable source: The word "source" in Wikipedia has three meanings: the type of the work (some examples include a document, an article, or a book)." Just because someone is not in the news does not mean that they are not relevant to culture. As quoted by the wiki itself: "Determining notability does not necessarily depend on things such as fame, importance, or popularity". The IMBD is verifiable because they call artists agents to verify films, actors, etc. are accurate before they put information in their site. According the the IMDB: " IMDb retains the right to reject any work whose eligibility according to above rules is dubious or/and not verifiable." Same thing goes for Discogs, they verify all the information through a processes with their sources before entering information online. Please note that there will be additional references added to the Jacky Elastic page from Teen People Magazine (a division of People Magazine) with proper citations that can be verified from the physical magazine itself (not online but in print). The Teen People source is going to take a day or two to get the reference so please give me some time. A "Career" section explaining more in depth will also be added as well. According to the Wikipedia: "Sources are not required to be available online, and they are not required to be in English". If you still need additional information to verify you can verify request Jacky Elastic's agents information.Uwuwuw (talk) 06:56, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Uwuwuw[reply]

• Delete - No coverage in reliable sources. Even the coverage in unreliable sources are scant. The article in Digilove.com is not substantial, and I'm not convinced it is even a reliable source. - Whpq (talk) 16:08, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Mark Arsten (talk) 20:57, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Lacks coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Hosting a minor awards ceremony does not make one notable. duffbeerforme (talk) 05:20, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
