Initially prodded for deletion, but deproded by creator. No indication that this album meets :WP:NALBUM to justify a stand-alone article. A search for sources gets hits from Amazon and other download sites, but nothing appearing to be any critical reviews, awards or chart listings. Article states album released independently, but no other infomration provided by the label. A release by a major independent label nmight be OK, but if not if this was a self-release by the artist herself. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:08, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

  • Comment: Note that the singer's article, Angelique Francis, has been PROD'ded but not AfD'ed, which could cause a procedural problem if that article is deleted before this album article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:03, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
  • This article was also prodded for deletion, but was deproded by its creator. If you feel the artist's article should be discussed at AfD, you can deprod that article. However, each article is being evaluated separately based upon different notability guidelines (at least that should be the case), so the notabiility (or lack thereof) of one should not have a significant on the notability of the other. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:46, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
  • Delete. Every album that exists is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article. The notability test for albums is specialness, as demonstrated by charting sales, major music awards or at least a GNG-passing volume of critical attention — but none of those things are evident here at all. The musician's notability is a separate matter from the album's, because it's measured in different ways by different types of sourcing, but just for the record her notability as a musician isn't strongly demonstrated either.

  • Redirect to the singer if that article stays, else Delete. Not every album that exists is notable, but a plausible search term for the singer (if that article stays). Joseph2302 (talk) 19:04, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
