German clarinettist (BLP). The sources given are either dead links or are routine bios that any professional musician would have, so nothing amounting to significant coverage in multiple reliable sources independent of the subject, as required for WP:BASIC. I also can't see anything that would satisfy WP:MUSICBIO. Dionysodorus (talk) 03:16, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO IllustriousIce2472 (talk) 06:36, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep:. The so-called dead links can be found in the wayback machine, so they are not inaccessible. WP:MUSICBIO famously fails musicians that do not chart on popular music charts in the US and UK, but she passes "Has released two or more albums on a major record label". As a classic musician, she is notable enough to pass. -Yupik (talk) 14:12, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: - I have improved the referencing on this article. Moondragon21 (talk) 23:05, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Moondragon21. --Rosiestep (talk) 17:02, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:HEY. The sources show GNG. DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 18:31, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Keep – significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. --Northernhenge (talk) 21:30, 3 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
