No notability. Notability asserted is that she is a "You Tube sensation". A singer but no reliable refs and just one local TV appearance  Velella  Velella Talk   14:16, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

  • Weak Delete - This one has a little more credibility than most Youtube sensations having made an appearance on the Ellen Degeneres show. Coverage (in Vietnamese) [http://dantri.com.vn/c23/s23-506350/giong-ca-day-me-hoac-cua-co-be-12-tuoi-maddi-ane.htm here]. That is the most substantial item I was able to dig up. Minor mentions on [http://www.billboard.com/column/uncharted-territory/uncharted-territory-supersubmarina-returns-1005216572.story#/column/uncharted-territory/uncharted-territory-supersubmarina-returns-1005216572.story Billboard], soemthing in [http://www.dgabc.com.br/News/5874785/voce-sabe-quem-e-rebecca-black-e-maddi-jane.aspx Portuguese], and [http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504784_162-20071722-10391705.html CBS]. -- Whpq (talk) 17:00, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

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

When you consider that she currently over 30 million views for 'Price Tag' I consider her to be absolutely notable now. Because little is known about her does not make for a good reason to delete the small amount of information that is known. It may just mean that she has some parents that are doing a fabulous job of protecting her. Ed Wilson— Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.9.107.109 (talk) 02:50, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Was able to dig into her as she is on Spotify which here music has been added to. Other than this, little is known about the artist. http://open.spotify.com/artist/6p0HFtE6QhdHNY1H4Nk0mo — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paddiiee (talk • contribs) 00:30, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Considering the quality of the productions uploaded to YouTube, there is considerable probability that Maddi Jane is going to be in the public view for some time. Unless she turns out to be unable to perform consistently, Maddi Jane has the markings of a rising star. The internet is becoming more widely viewed than traditional media, and YouTube is an extremely popular site to see new acts, and videos by notable entertainers. This is the new 'Gong Show', with millions of judges. If, after a period of time, say one year, this entertainer is not widely known, then the entry could be justifiably deleted. There is little available about Maddi Jane because she has not been promoted for very long, which does not indicate anything about her potential popularity. And her voice is likely to change in the near future, which may have a large impact on her singing. For no other reason than the desire to know this entertainer's age, having a wiki entry is worthwhile. Scott P.

  • Comment - That's backwards. We don't create articles for people who might become notable in the future. If your predictions of fame and success in the next year are correct, then the coverage will exist then to establish notability, and then would be the time to create an article. -- Whpq (talk) 11:39, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

I'm quite impressed by her YouTube productions, especially the Adele cover, and almost 30 million views for "Price Tag" is impressive, too, but apart from other considerations, the article contains only minimal information. If that's all that can be said about Maddi Jane, I'd delete the article. --Bernardoni (talk) 14:47, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

:I feel you should keep the article. I was searching for information on her after being introduced to her music by a friend in the Philippines. First, that shows that people such as myself are looking for information on her music. Second, she has an international following. Not really a youtube editor though. {{subst|unsignedip|24.13.12.128}}

  • Delete Run of the mill youtube poster and guest on Ellent Degeneres. Doesn't make her notable.Curb Chain (talk) 08:48, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:CRYSTAL, for she may become notable but does not yet reach that point. Bearian (talk) 20:29, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete Appears to fail WP:CREATIVE as I am unable to locate reliable source coverage. While she may be notable in the future, WP:CRYSTAL suggests we would need notability now and that Wikipedia is not a crystal ball for future notability or a means to help establish such notability.
