Previously deleted at AfD, the article was created again today. It contains one (local) source that provides significant coverage of the subject. I've been unable to find any additional independent sources. Not notable as a singer/songwriter or as a journalist. Schazjmd (talk) 00:37, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete I find many thing she's written, but nothing about her as a person. Some local coverage about her singing/releasing a single, which just about anyone can do online these days. Nothing notable. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:46, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:NOTRESUME, plus WP:NJOURNALIST which says that simply being a journalist with publications is not sufficient. Instead, there must be reliable articles about said journalist as prominent in that field. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 14:31, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete we need something more than press releases from her employers to show that she is notable. In general reporters for local newspapers are not, on the whole notable. Only a select few journalists are actual notable for journalism per se, a lot more move on to becoming notable writers. Yes, there are also people notable for being journalists, but they are far outnumbered by the news reporters who are not notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:24, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
