Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kaya (Canadian singer) (2nd nomination)
Firstly, Wikipedia does not have any rule that our sources need to be in English — as long as ''our'' article is in English, the sources can be in ''any'' language. And we also don't have any requirement that the sources be web-accesible, either — as long as complete citation details (title of the source, name of the publication and date) were provided, if the weblink dies we still have a wholly valid reference, because all we have to do is strip the URL and turn it into a citation to the ''print'' version of the reference instead of the web version.And secondly, while we can certainly limit our coverage of your current life as it stands today, you have Juno Award and Prix Félix nominations in your past when you were making mainstream pop and rock music — which means that we ''have'' to be able to have ''some'' form of an article about you, because that's a straight  pass for which an article ''must'' be allowed to exist. While I'll admit that it does contain two artists who don't actually have articles ''yet'', we simply can't deem a shortlisted Juno Award for Artist of the Year nominee — which you are — to be off limits as an article topic: ''every'' person listed there ''must'' be either an article or a potential future article, with no exceptions for any reason. Same for Juno Award for Francophone Album of the Year, where you also have a nomination under your belt.We can certainly make some edits to the article to balance your prominence in the 1990s against your personal privacy rights as a lower-profile private citizen in the 2010s — but the article is based on |reliable sources, which means that if anything in it is wrong that's the sources' fault and not ours, and articles ''must'' be allowed to exist on Wikipedia about past Juno nominees. There can simply never be an exception to that: the Juno nominations mean we ''have'' to maintain an article about at least ''that'' part of your life, and the only room for debate is how much the article does or doesn't need to say about what you're doing ''now
