  • Comment: That the sources are almost entirely in Armenian are not an issue. This singer covers WP:MUSIC Paragraph 1, 9,12. BabbaQ ( talk) 10:57, 27 February 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - I have changed my !vote to Keep. For reasons mentioned in my comment above. This clearly meets WP:MUSIC. BabbaQ ( talk) 11:11, 27 February 2018 (UTC) reply
    No it doesn't. No published music (doesn't have an iTunes or Spotify page), so paragraph 1 isn't met; hasn't won any major music competitions, which means paragraph 9 isn't met; and participating in a Eurovision selection doesn't give her automatic encyclopedic relevance, or else this wouldn't have happened. We should remember that this is an encyclopedia, and not a platform to promote unsigned hopefuls who haven't contributed to anything relevant in order to have their own page. ׺°”˜`”°º× ηυηzια׺°”˜`”°º× 15:42, 27 February 2018 (UTC) reply
    Your last sentence reminds me of WP:JUSTDONTLIKEIT. When determining notability, the Wikipedia guidelines are what's important. The current state of sourcing in the article demonstrates she's received significant coverage in independent sources about not just her music but her history and her life. According to WP:GNG, this indicates that she is notable. Lonehexagon ( talk) 18:52, 3 March 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Based on the current sourcing of the article (I clicked on just three examples, though there's many more), it appears to easily pass WP:GNG due to the amount of coverage in independent secondary sources. Whether or not she passes WP:MUSIC, the extensive coverage she's received about her history, hobbies, and education demonstrate that there's significant interest in her as a person.
