Where is the Wikipedian's criteria

edit

User:CommanderWaterford marked this article with problems in notability, however, in Wikipedia:Notability_(music)#Criteria_for_composers_and_lyricists says that:

Composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists, may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition. (Several of her songs were interpreted by famous musicians)
  • Has written musical theatre of some sort (includes musicals, operas, etc.) that was performed in a notable theatre that had a reasonable run, as such things are judged in their particular situation, context, and time.
  • Has had a work used as the basis for a later composition by a songwriter, composer or lyricist who meets the above criteria.
  • Has written a composition that has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers.
  • Has been listed as a major influence or teacher of a composer, songwriter or lyricist that meets the above criteria.
  • Appears at reasonable length in standard reference books on their genre of music. (Source it's a reference book on Women's composers)

This Woman composer accomplished criteria in bold. That's more than at least one. It's clear that the article needs more references, but notability is not an issue here.--Johnsdisc (talk) 01:22, 28 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
