Anyone has the source listing Rebecca as signed to Epic Records? Ohyeahbecca ( talk) 23:51, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Again many less-experienced editors fall into the trap of creating the page just a little bit early enough. The trick is this... if you will. Wait for the next UK chart and if you see Ms. Rebecca Ferguson has charted in the UK or Ireland or both, it will be time to recreate page as that would be a good criterion for notability. I'm sure you can wait and 7 days is not such a long time. Personally I do think she deserves a page, but lets take the general concensus. This is what happened to Jedward and beleive it or not a ne Michael Jackson song Hold My Hand (Michael Jackson song) which was being created and deleted and recreated and redeleted until the following week when it charted... So let's wait for a week and buy her single instaed to ensure that she does chart... werldwayd ( talk) 00:44, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

I see that Rebecca Ferguson now leads to a disambig page. Given that the singer gets some 4000 hits a day, and the actress just 1 or 2 daily, I can't help thinking that it should come here by default. 86.131.18.213 ( talk) 14:47, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi I am new here and sadly I don't know how to post links yet to outside articles. Still I added that Rebecca was inspired by Amy Winehouse only because there are a lot of sources saying that. Until I can post a link to them here are the ones I will give you. On her twitter page she has frequently mentioned Winehouse as an influence on her saying she inspired her as both a songwriter and a singer. In an interview with a magazine that's called "Rebecca talks life after the X factor using sex to sell records and more" she mentions Amy Winehouse first among her influences more than anyone else. That same article is also where she mentions Sam Cooke and Ottis Redding. In the interview she said "especially Ottis Redding" so its clear that he is a big influence on her. I also got the quote about Amy Winehouse taken from that article. Now I expect these to probably be taken down as they are not sourced. Still I felt I had to add them as I think the article the way it is, is a bit misleading as clearly Winehouse was a big influence on her as she mentions her quite a lot as well as Redding who she said "especially" inspired her. This article however seemingly makes out that only the kings of leon and Aretha Franklin inspired her, so something should be done to show these other artists influence as well. Wish I knew how to source things LOL-- Grettdumbido ( talk) 06:06, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Rebecca Ferguson →
Rebecca Ferguson (singer) – Per the discussion above,
Rebecca Ferguson (singer) was moved to
Rebecca Ferguson claiming it was the
primary topic and
Rebecca Ferguson (actress) was secondary. One justification was that the singer gets some 1500 hits a day, the actress gets an average 10. Perhaps this move was correct at the time, or perhaps it was
WP:RECENTISM as another user suggested, but at any rate it certainly is not the case now. Actually, it is the opposite,
Rebecca Ferguson gets 1000 hits a day, and
Rebecca Ferguson (actress) gets 4000. The singer's numbers are probably inflated anyway, since a lot of users, such as myself, reach the actress's page through the singer. If anything, the actress probably has a better claim to being the
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC; but that may also be due to
WP:RECENTISM (she starred in a blockbuster this year). The correct thing to do at the moment is to move this page back to
Rebecca Ferguson (singer) and bring back the disambiguation page, as the singer clearly is not the primary topic.
