- Comment found a short staff-written bio at AllMusic here. Haven't done a full search yet, Atlantic306 (talk) 23:16, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as well as the AllMusic bio linked above I found this from Goldberg Magazine here which also quotes pieces about her by Opera Magazine, and Musical Times. Also, there is this review of one of her records in Gramophone here, and another review by AllMusic here. Also finding a lot of Google book results, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 20:03, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. There are lots of small articles around and I have already expanded the article itself. More can be done with a bit of research. BigChrisKenney (talk) 01:51, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep and keep improving. I have removed a lot of the promotional language and extraneous biographical detail that appeared to be original research which is not allowed per WP:OR and WP:BLP. I have removed the "BBC" as a source as if you look at the actual archived page, it cites Wikipedia as its main source (!). I have also removed the Opera Magazine and Musical Times quotes for now until someone actually finds the actual sources for those. But given the length of her career and number of recordings, there are a wealth of reviews which are easy to find via Wikipedia Library, ProQuest, etc. which satisfy WP:BASIC and WP:CREATIVE (notable body of work), arguably WP:NMUSIC (prominent in early music scene), and probably WP:GNG (she did give a lot of interviews over the years so it will take a while to sift through the to find the "best" that also includes objective third-party interpretation rather than straight Q&A "take what she says on face value")...I've added the Gramophone review referenced above, as well as an excerpt from the The New York Times. This article could still use more work...but there is plenty of "colour" here about this bold and distinctive performer, like in this 1993 review in the Vancouver Sun.
