This biography of a living person is unsourced in English. It was tagged for BLP PROD by another editor in 2016; this was declined on the basis that the version of the article in Italian does have sources. However, I do not see that the sources in Italian meet en.wiki standards for a biographical article. I don't see what's reliable about any of them. —S Marshall T/C 12:06, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, i sourced the 2 main reasons of Iskra Menarini relevance: her cooperation with lucio Dalla, one of the most important Italian pop artists, and her participation in the 2009 Sanremo festival.--Pampuco (talk) 12:36, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notability isn't inherited from Lucio Dalla or the Sanremo Festival, though.—S Marshall T/C 15:39, 2 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Sources seem to be not about her, but about Dalla. Notability not established, and we shuldn't keep a largely unsourced BLP around. Sandstein 11:41, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep From the information in the article, it seems that this musician may meet WP:MUSICBIO#6: "is a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles". She certainly was a "reasonably prominent member" of Lucio Dalla's group, being his vocalist for 24 years, including on a single, Attenti al lupo [it], that was No 1 for 4 weeks in 1990/91. She was also vocalist with Samuele Bersani, Vasco Rossi, Raffaella Carrà, and others, on albums/singles at least some of which also reached the top 10. The article now has sources. It certainly needs editing, and it would be good if someone could find the offline sources used in the Italian article, and indeed find other offline sources, but she does appear notable. I will try to edit the article and add citations for as much information as possible from online sources. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:47, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
