Is this atrociously self-promotional article worth retaining in some vigorously paired down form? Her only notability that I can see seems to be as co-writer of a song Sweetheart (song), covered and made famous by someone else.

- Keep – Rewrite yes. I agree with nominator that the article does need to be pared down. However, that is an editing issue not a reason for deletion. Regarding notability, I believe being nominated for a Grammy Award, as shown here from an independent source [1] fulfills our requirement for inclusion.

- I agree: sorry, I didn't notice the Grammy nom. Withdrawn. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:52, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – Not a problem. With all the fluff in the article, it was easily overlooked. Happy Holidays. Just-An-Average-Guy (talk) 18:21, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
