Non-notable musician. Simply competing in Melodifestivalen does not make one notable (they must perform well). No charting singles. Fails

  • Keep - Per WP:GNG. WP:MUSIC. Notable musician in Sweden. Has had several charting musical albums. Fully referenced with noted refs. Participated in Melodifestivalen tonight which is the largest song contest in Sweden and highly notable.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:45, 10 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Notable musician, totally worthy of inclusion. Davidgoodheart (talk) 22:06, 10 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Multiple charting albums along with participating in Melodifestivalen means he passes notability threshold for inclusion. Mattg82 (talk) 23:53, 10 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • A drive-by !vote just like at Ida Redigs article. Did you actually read the article before writing? Several of his albums have charted and have references provided.BabbaQ (talk) 12:07, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I searched for him on Google News and found several articles with in-depth interviews and bios discussing his work. Appears to have received significant secondary coverage. Lonehexagon (talk) 17:10, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Interviews do not count as they are not independent enough from the subject to count as
WP:RS. The same goes for biographies, which are usually provided by the subject.104.163.148.25 (talk) 16:33, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply

Lonehaxagon states that he thinks the subject has recieved significant secondary coverage. I guess that includes other sources as well.BabbaQ (talk) 13:09, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's nice.104.163.148.25 (talk) 01:09, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, if a party like
    Örebropartiet with no seats ever in any local election seems to be a keep, then a local singer like this should be a keep even without the melldifestivalen song. So a clear keep. Adville (talk) 22:05, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply
