Question regarding notability

I added more information; in my opinion several aspects of notability are met

1 album on independent label, 1 album and 2 EPs on major record label
music used for nation-wide broadcast TV programs, including NHK (Japan's major TV network)
coverage in various print-media (listed in table), coverage in many online magazines (see footnotes)

Even though the music is Japanese, due to many foreigners living in Japan and this artist's appearance at major festivals with an international audience, I think this page is of interest to non-Japanese.
Do you think the issue [notability] can be removed? Shiru22 (talk) 10:15, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question regarding external links

I think I solved most issues with external links by removing them and instead including footnotes.
Is it really necessary to remove links to social media? It seems to be OK on Japanese wikipedia.
If so, of course I will remove those links as well.
When I have done that, can the issue [external links] be removed? Shiru22 (talk) 10:15, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Update: All external links have been removed, except for the artist's website. Shiru22 (talk) 15:06, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the tag as the external links are no longer an issue. The main reason I added the tag was due to the external links in the body, which is not the norm for English Wikipedia. In general, per WP:EXTLINKS, links to social media are discouraged, with the exception of a single link to the official website of the subject. Bensci54 (talk) 17:24, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
