Nonnotable singer; no best-selling albums, and no references (Myspace doesn't count). The original author (see page history) has not made any other edits. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 16:50, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak keep. If it can be verified that her single went to #1 in Japan she should meet WP:MUSIC!--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 19:20, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Like HisSpaceResearch, I agree that the WP:MUSIC guideline of notability will be met if it can be shown in a significant, reliable resource that the song Marie hit #1 in Japan. However, I spent some time searching on Google, and I couldn't come up with anything except a couple insignificant mentions. Part of the problem is that any site that looks promising is in Japanese. Until this fact can be proven... Tanthalas39 (talk) 03:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per Tanthalas39's research showing unmet WP:MUSIC. Should credible sources appear for that claim the article may always be recreated. --Dhartung | Talk 08:25, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. The SR P3 (a Swedish national radio network) placed several songs by her on its playlist in 1999: see here. The artist thus meets WP:MUSIC#11. I also see there that the singles are on Mega Records; if the albums were too (as is likely) then she meets #5 as well. Rigadoun (talk) 05:03, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I added that claim to the article and #5 is confirmed as well (though they are apparently on two different labels). Don't know about the #1 claim, though. Rigadoun (talk) 05:37, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
