Clearly, doesn't follow Wikipedia guidelines on notable people.

She's an author and musician, published, and has had a fair amount of press coverage. Considering she has popped up in the news again recently for political activism I can't help but wonder if there is another motivation at play.95.144.85.201 (talk) 08:48, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You can be an author and musician and not be notable enough for a wiki page. Can you show me where she meets the requirements for being an author WP:AUTHOR or a musician WP:BAND because the guidelines for both these areas clearly state that you require two works that have not been self-published? I voted to remain so please don't make bias accusations. Celerians (talk) 19:24, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

She's a nobody, one countless people who think they're more important than they are. She recorded two songs and listed them on iTunes, which doesn't make her a singer and printed two books, as can anyone who wants to spend their or in her case, crowd funders' money). This doesn't make her worthy of a wikipedia page, otherwise everyone who turns up to a protest will start wanting one! Once she's done something worthwhile she can have a page. I also voted remain, to avoid any accusation of bias. Cottrill93 (talk) 15:07, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Has managed to gain some press for protesting Brexit, but it's WP:SINGLEEVENT (even though it's multiple protest events, it's still basically just for one thing.) The coverages lacks scope and broadness to merit encyclopedic notability; they essentially focuses on the gimmick of a protester in a super girl costume. Also Fails notability standards for WP:AUTHOR and WP:MUSICIAN, as all coverage is run-of-the-mill and trivial in solid sources, and/or insignificant blogs, promotional, self-download, etc. ShelbyMarion (talk) 02:23, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, pure self-promotion.
