I could have PROD this but since I found some trivial coverage in the RS such as this, I opted to AfD'ed this..

So to me the subject does not appear to meet GNG and lacks non-trivial coverage from independent reliable sources.

For what its worth, the page was apparently created by the subject herself. Saqib (talk) 17:56, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as stub. She is singer. Lot of coverage in video. There are two articles which are related to her. [1] and [2]. In addition to above article this. Needs cleanup which can be done once this deletion discussion is closed. --Spasage (talk) 20:28, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Singers are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they are singers and exists — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:SINGERS.. You should provide reliable sources, not any source to establish the notability. Coverage in the Hindustan Times is merely passing mention. --Saqib (talk) 20:31, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There is a whole article on her. See this [3] --Spasage (talk) 20:41, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is some questionable dubious source having poor reputation for fact checking. --Saqib (talk) 20:45, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neither htv nor hindustantimes are dubious. It may be stub but not a delete. --Spasage (talk) 20:49, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid HTV.com.pk is clearly some unreliable source which we should not be citing on BLPs. --Saqib (talk) 20:52, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

that is not the only one cited. there are three. combine all three, you have good idea of the person. --Spasage (talk) 20:54, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We don't cite gossip-tabloids over BLPs.And, the HTimes cover the subject in the most trivial of all manners.~ Winged Blades^Godric 15:12, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete-As Saqib said, these paid-spammy-pieces/interviews at tabloids are not eligible as sources in BLPs.Fails WP:NSINGER.No significant non-trivial coverage.Let the rising star rise a bit more aka TOOSOON.~ Winged Blades^Godric 07:45, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I can't find a single reliable source discussing her in depth (and a BLP requires rather more than a single source). COI issue as per the talk page of this discussion. --bonadea contributions talk 16:02, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
