Halifax, Nova Scotia drag queen and local musician. 128 web hits for "Amber Wayves" OR AmberWayves consisting of lists of drag queens or Halifax musicians, hir posts in guestbooks, etc. Sie doesn't meet Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/Notability and Music Guidelines. I'd have no problem with an inclusion of a link in an article about the Halifax music scene or Canadian drag queen musicians, but an article about hir at this point is too granular.

- Delete. Advertisement. Not sufficently notable. Gamaliel 18:24, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Note article has been deleted and recreated three times. Note that user has also created Reflections Cabaret, a non-notable Halifax bar. Both articles need to be deleted, but with something done to guard against their continued recreation. Bearcat 18:32, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete This article claims she/he was born Born July 28, 2002?! What the heck? I guess we certainly can't accuse Amber Wayves of grayin'. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:44, Feb 7, 2005 (UTC)
- I saw that, and reasoned it must be a different definition of "birth", eg. as a drag queen. Samaritan 19:02, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Amber Wayves writes: I can't believe you people are so blind as to the nature of my profile. I Amber Wayves am a performer in Halifax who performs music artists, I think that would clasify it as music. Since you all are so stupid, don't have a profile on me, and don't write an article. Yes Amber Wayves was born on the 28th of July 2002. Thanks alot
- Wikipedia is not about having profiles on every single performer on the planet; only ones who are famous or notable within the development of a genre belong on here. This isn't a knock against you personally; musicians and performers whose fame is primarily local just don't meet the definition of what Wikipedia is here for. This is an encyclopedia, not a web directory. And it's not homophobia, either...I'm a gay man myself. Bearcat 19:44, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Page was edited into an anti-Wikipedia rant shortly after Amber posted her comment above. I've speedied. Bearcat 19:53, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
