• Weak delete, even though passes #8 and #9 of

• Weak keep per #8 and #9 of
  WP:MUSICBIO. Ultimately we need to consider Western bias when we evaluate articles from other parts of the world. While some of the sources lack independence or have reliability issues and should be removed; there are a few sources which are in depth and are of quality. The award nomination puts it on the keep side for me.4meter4 (talk) 13:48, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply

• Comment There is no indication that the award has international recognition and condidering the number of categories that it has, gives me less confidence that it is actually worth anything. Almost every biographical article now has an awards section now, with the presumption of an explosion in the number of awards that are available. Every facet of existance has some kind award associated with it. It is just the way of folk, trying to keep the article in Wikipedia. The award is non-notable. And there is no indication she has international recognition. scope_creep^Talk 14:59, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - I agree with the nominator on the Ghana DJ Awards, which appears to be yet another vehicle for advertising. I can find no in-depth coverage of any of their ceremonies or the apparent prestige given to the winners, and lists of winners are merely repeated at unreliable websites. As for Mz Orstin, it may appear that she received recognition as a rare woman DJ in her country, but once again that coverage is in the form of repeats of her own management's PR releases (e.g. [1]). The same pattern is seen in announcements of her record releases. Otherwise she seems to be making an honest living as a DJ at clubs and restaurants but she does not have enough
  reliable and significant media coverage for an article here. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 01:29, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply
