• Delete. Fails WP:MUSICBIO. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 05:04, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldnt !vote on your own AfD, you making this AfD is a !vote in itself.--BabbaQ (talk) 10:57, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Placing a bullet before an AFD rationale is not contrary to any community recommendations, does not imply a super !vote, and has no bearing on the conclusion of the discussion. In essence, you are objecting to the format applied by Alan Liefting. Different strokes. The result is the same. Best regards, Cind.amuse (Cindy) 23:36, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong Keep - The subject does not fail WP:MUSICBIO and also meets WP:GNG. She has released a music single and placed amongst the top3 in Idol 2011. I guess the person who put this article up for AfD isnt aware of Swedish Idol as the user lives in Christchurch, New Zealand and isnt aware of the persons major hit in Sweden and shouldnt have put it up for speedy deletion. This is a young singer in the beginning of a major career.--BabbaQ (talk) 11:00, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - but BabbaQ should note that AfD arguments must be from evidence, not personal experience. The evidence includes:

Aftonbladet and Aftonbladet "Moa Lignell was lionised yesterday, and now the record companies are chasing her" (Swedish national evening newspaper)

TV4 (Swedish national television)

Dagens Nyheter (major Swedish national newspaper's TV blog)

There are other articles also in Dagens Nyheter. Notability is not in doubt, really. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:52, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even if you are right Chiswick I find it strange that Alan Liefting placed this for speedy deletion and then AfD in the first place as it passes WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. As you yourself states Notability is not in doubt, really. --BabbaQ (talk) 14:38, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

BabbaQ, if you can spare the time to add some citations to the article, that would be really helpful. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:44, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. The subject clearly meets the general notability guidelines. Topical notability guidelines covering entertainers and musicians indicate that individuals may be notable due to the large national fan base and placing in a major music competition. The summation here clearly supports notability. Best regards, Cind.amuse (Cindy) 23:24, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
