- Keep The entry was set up 2010. According to Wikipedia guidelines on Biographies of Living People starting April 3, 2010, a "...proposed deletion process for unsourced biographies was established, requiring all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, to have at least one reliable source that supports at least one statement about the subject." This entry was flagged for fixing in June 2009, which means it was made before March 2010. It now adheres to past and current Wikipedia Guidelines. It cites verifiable and verifiably 3rd party sources (Wired, Harvard Business Review, Publishers Weekly, LA Weekly, Billboard, Kirkus). It is no longer a Stub nor an Orphan. The person theorized about file sharing, exchanging digital data via the Internet. Her concepts pre-date peer-to-peer file sharing and downloading by 2 years and influenced her specific field and society. This is supported by case studies from HBR and business magazines and newspapers like Forbes and the WSJ about the loss of revenue from the film and music industries. She is also a relative of a verifiable intellectual. I did not know I could contribute here since I proposed undeleting the entry. But an administrator JohnCD contacted me directly and told me I can.Simile (talk) 08:43, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- Delete Does not meet WP:GNG. The only RS on the page are in sections that are not about her -- one is about a relative WP:NOTINHERIT, and one is studies of the music industry turndown. I found one article she wrote in 1997 in Adweek (magazine not in the list on the page), but no others. She is listed in IMDB (not a reliable source as assistant music director on one film, and music director on another. I found no sources about her. LaMona (talk) 01:54, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
- Comment According to WP:GNGSources do not have to be available online or written in English. Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability. She does meet WP:NOTINHERIT Keep She once worked with someone famous --the directors and actors on the films she worked on. This also supports WP:NOTINHERIT Keep his brother is a notable athlete. – Family Tree, 19:44, 29 October 2007 (UTC) in this case the relative is a notable author and intellectual [1] and this also supports WP:NOTINHERIT Keep: there are lots of famous people on this list, so it's notable. – Adrian Listmaker, 18:20, 26 March 2009 (UTC). The famous people she has worked with include Ryan O'Neal (starred in a Stanley Kubrick Film), Sean Hayes (starred in a TV show that played in North America and around the world).Simile (talk) 18:00, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Simile: you have misunderstood WP:NOTINHERITED - it is part of an essay called Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions, so the heading "Notability is inherited", and arguments like "Keep - She once worked with someone famous" and "Keep - his brother is a notable athlete" are presented there as examples of arguments that should not be used. The point is that notability is not inherited, so that her relative's book, or the fact that she once worked for a music label one of whose artists appeared in a film with Johnny Depp, have absolutely nothing to do with the question of whether she is notable.

- Delete - Lacks significant coverage that would estalbish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 17:18, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
