Unable to establish notability in accordance with WP:MUSICBIO. Previously deleted four times, but at this point, subject signed with Bad Boy/Interscope, so bringing it for discussion. At this point, subject is merely signed and has not released or charted. Cindy(talk to me) 03:26, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete/Redirect to List of YouTube personalities/Protect and salt. This is just a case of WP:TOOSOON. A search doesn't bring up enough sources to show that Nicole is ultimately notable enough at this point in time to warrant an article. There's some mention of her here and there, but never really big enough or in sources that could count towards notability. At present the biggest mention of her is that she was signed to a label. Will she become notable? Maybe, but we can't guarantee that she will. For every one person that gets signed and makes it big enough to warrant an article, there's at least four who are signed and never really get that level of attention and/or the contract fizzles before anything is actually recorded. Being signed in itself is not enough to warrant an article, which is why people have to have released a few albums on the label to pass WP:MUSICBIO on that front. That being said, there might be merit in including her on the list of YouTube personalities and redirecting there for the time being. Whatever the decision is, I recommend that the closing admin protect the article name in order to keep someone from re-adding the article to the mainspace before the singer passes notability guidelines.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 04:22, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete lack of coverage in secondary sources. SalHamton (talk) 18:44, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete, redirect to list of YouTube personalities and sysop protect for 6 months or so - Not quite notable for Wikipedia at this time, having 1 million YouTube subscribers is not notability as several users have thousands of subscribers. The best source I have found is [http://www.billboard.com/news/psy-still-no-1-on-social-50-chart-50-cent-1007949702.story#/news/psy-still-no-1-on-social-50-chart-50-cent-1007949702.story this] Billboard article mentioning her Twitter, YouTube and Facebook fans, her Bad Boy/Interscope affiliation and one iTunes single. Although the article mentions that she plans to release a debut album, this is not written to stone and may be cancelled therefore it's better to redirect the article for now. I know today's social networking world introduces several well-known personalities and artists but not all of them are going to establish themselves as serious individuals.

EDIT: I have now added "sysop protect" to my vote after viewing the deletion log which contained two copy violations, one from Megan Nicole's website and the other from her Facebook page. It's better to protect the article to prevent new users, especially her fans, from starting the same content. SwisterTwister talk 21:16, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
