Non-notable musician, fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. No indication of notability, lack of coverage in reliable sources. — Za wl 10:44, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: great DJ, very well known name to anyone's who's been clubbing in Ibiza in the last 15 years, lots of good records released on her MAINroom label, but... it's the same problem that most DJs have on Wikipedia unless they produce their own chart hits – any decent coverage is likely to be found in dance magazines like Mixmag, DJ Mag, etc. and none of these magazines have much in the way of online content. So reliable sources are going to be hard to come by from an internet search, and to be honest she isn't well known outside the clubbing community, so she fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO as it stands.

Keep. Articles where she is the primary focus are

"The main attraction", The Mercury, 10 August 2012

"Aussie DJ forever on the move", Shanghai Daily, 24 May 2007

McCabe, Kathy (21 December 2006), "McCabe", Daily Telegraph

@Duffbeerforme: could you add these sources to the article? I'd be willing to change my vote if there are sources, but as you seem to be the only person to have access to these sources, it rather falls on you to add them in order to keep the article.

could you show some text from these articles? LibStar (talk) 10:49, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

1."INTERNATIONAL DJ Sarah Main, resident at one of the world's best clubs, Pacha in Ibiza, will be churning out top sounds in grand style at The Origin in Durban tonight as part of a three-city SA tour billed as That's What She Said."

2."Sydney native a resident at Pete Tong's Ibiza nightclub ". "The sexy spinner has been flying the green and gold at UK legend Pete Tong's playground Pacha nightclub since 2001 and has been in fine form doing so. An avid traveler, she is no stranger to crossing multiple time zones in one tour, taking off from Singapore one day and waking up in Paris en route to a gig in Belgium. So much so that her ties to the land "Down Under" have been diminished somewhat recently. Before a gig late last month at south Bund super club Attica she admitted to forgetting when the ANZAC Day national remembrance holiday fell. "

3."Sydney DJ Sarah Main left Australia to conquer the world's dance headquarters and returns this summer as Ibiza's queen. Main, a resident disc spinner at the legendary Pacha club for the past five years, was recently named Best Ibiza DJ at the island's annual awards." duffbeerforme (talk) 11:34, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I have added two extra references. International DJ of some 20 years, with enough references (Daily Telegraph, In The Mix, Shanghai Daily etc) to substantiate her notability.Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:25, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep while assuming good faith that the supplied references are actually about the subject and do not simply mention the subject. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:41, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
