Relies too heavily on primary sources, looks promotional. Fails GNG TheManInTheBlackHat (Talk) 21:00, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

- Keep - There appears to be significant coverage in reliable sources. Examples
here. I think it's also relevant that SBS (a national Australian broadcaster) seemed to take notice of this artists tour and their subsequent immigration issues. Non-notable people do not have such issues picked up by national media. Example
here. The article is too heavily reliant on primary sources, and does appear slightly promotional. However the notability standard appears to be met and so these relevant issues can be addressed via clean-up rather than deletion. Not exactly a hill I am willing to die on, but I do lean keep on this occasion.

MaxnaCarta Is Hot in Juba really a reliable source? The article you are linking at doesn't even have an author but only "source: Talk of Juba"?

- I don’t have any evidence it is not a reliable source. It appears to be a legitimate South Sudanese media outlet with a huge social media following. I don’t normally use that as evidence of reliability but I don’t want to exclude an outlet just because I’m not familiar with it. I know little about South Sudan or its media sources but this looks to be one of substance. Also, no author does not mean lack of reliability. Just the other day I was sourcing something written by the BBC and no author was listed. MaxnaCarta ( talk) 02:01, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:MUSICBIO: the artist has undertaken national tours of Australia and has been described by its national media. Further work on improving content via clean-up is not sufficient reason for article's deletion. shaidar cuebiyar ( talk) 03:24, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
- Weak Keep: It appears
WP:GNG may be met, I am not too confident on the reliability of the sources that meet GNG (see below) but they seem legit enough. Article needs work but the tags sufficiently highlight the issues that can be worked on.
Sources that satisfy GNG include: galaxyFM, Hot in Juba, & Sudans Post. - GMH Melbourne ( talk) 12:04, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
