The result was keep. There is consensus to keep the article on the means that the article passes WP:MUSIC. However, there is still promotional material that may needs cleanup. (non-admin closure) A a s i m 16:18, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I say keep. Eryn Shewell has received coverage in major music publications as well as regional newspapers. There may be more about her in press by now. She has been touring internationally. I will check.Lhcollins (talk) 15:43, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you can find any sources in major music publications, by all means do. A quick Google search comes up with nothing rather than very specific regional newspapers. Serhatserhatserhat (talk) 16:09, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- There were sources for most of the awards already. They were just in a different part of the text. The newspapers and music magazines listed are RS. She has won numerous awards and performed with the best. I went into my university's database and there are actually more articles there, but I stuck to what needed sourcing.Lhcollins (talk) 17:00, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- The blues scene is more low key than mainstream rock which is something to consider.
Comment regional newspapers are reliable sources, mainstream music publications are not necessary to establish notability, they just are often used in articles related to the music industry.IphisOfCrete (talk) 20:29, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

COMMENT: I would say let`s delete the article.Wikirapguru (talk) 17:18, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as she has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources such as regional newspapers and as she has been entered into the NY and New Jersey Blues Hall of Fame that would be a claim to pass WP:MUSIC criteria 7: "Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city" (only one criteria needed), in addition to passing WP:GNG, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 20:48, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Weak keep - Coverage by local and regional publications is one thing, but I'm still wary about how incredibly promotional and generally unsourced the article is right now. However, even if the page gets turned into a stub or otherwise severely pruned, I'm inclined to think that it's worth keeping given the persuasive arguments of the above user. The artist appears to be a key member of the blues scene in her particular area. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 15:12, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
